The Penn State Association of Water Students (PAWS) is an organization dedicated to bridging the gaps among the disciplines and providing a forum for students interested in water-related research across disciplines. The Water Cooler Series is a monthly event for the water student community planned to bring the community together and share interesting research/ideas/plans with peers from different disciplines and backgrounds.
September's featured speaker is Marissa Kopp who will present on "Shale Hills: Water Opportunities at a Long-Term Observatory"
The informal setup for the “Water Cooler Series” will provide students a platform to discuss brewing ideas about water-related research and get help/support from the peer group. The presentation need not be research-focused. This is the forum for you if you have some interesting field anecdotes or stories!
The discussion sessions shall be followed by networking/happy hour to build a community of like-minded water researchers. The discussion session will follow a relaxed and open-ended format.
