Dan Wolz Clean Water Education Grant
MSTA announced the competition for the Dan Wolz Clean Water Education Grant. This award is designed to help enable Michigan teachers to be aware of and promote careers in water environment, water quality, and wastewater management not only to their students, but also to the science community. The goal is to have students throughout the state who are much more aware of the contributions these industries make to society, and ideally, to become inspired enough in these fields to choose a career path that would make them a part of this broader effort of these fields.
More information about the program can be found here.
The Grant Application is available here, and should be postmarked by Dec. 18, 2009 and sent or faxed to the MSTA Office at the following address:
