In this week’s episode, Elise chats about environmental policy, the importance of outreach, and even extraterrestrial life with Dr. Patrick Shirey for Part 2 of Meeting the Candidates - be sure to check out last week’s episode for Part 1! Dr. Shirey is a Certified Ecologist, Certified Fisheries Professional, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Geology and Environmental Science at the University of Pittsburgh. He has served in many roles in AFS throughout his career and is now one of two candidates running for the role of 2nd Vice President of AFS. Voting begins tomorrow, March 20th, and will remain open until April 28th. As a reminder, only AFS Members can cast a vote for their favorite candidate, so now would be a great time to join if you haven’t already! For membership details, click the link below:
