Cheryl Beth Silverman Lecture Featuring Corina Newsome

Tuesday, January 19, 2021

6:00 PM-7:00 PM

Fresh off her article in National Audubon Society Magazine: "It's Time to Build a Truly Inclusive Outdoors,"  Corina will expand on the idea of underrepresented communities being exposed to wildlife sciences in conservation, environmental education and exploration of the natural world. She will share her thoughts in a virtual conversation and take questions from our guests for a live, interactive conversation.

Corina earned her B.A. in Zoo and Wildlife Biology at Malone University in Canton, OH, and is presently working on her M.Sc. in Biology at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, GA. This year Corina received the 2020 Averitt Award for Research Excellence from Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, GA.
