Thank you to Joshua Morse for writing this column for the past several years. The Class of ’14 needs someone to step into that position and report the class news for the winter and summer magazines. Please contact abigail.zelz@maine.edu to find out what this entails. It’s not a tough job — it’s not at all like an academic paper or lab report!

Morgan is the associate director of domestic programs and partnerships at Rice University in Houston, TX, and Christine is an assistant professor of climate communication at Stony Brook University.
