Environmental Protection Agency

Today started bright and early with a trip to the U.S.  Environmental Protection Agency Headquarters. This trip mostly consisted of listening to lectures from various EPA employees. We learned about the many positions within the EPA and how the employees got there. After returning to Mason, we watched an AWESOME presentation  from the ACE organization about climate change and what we need to do to save our planet. The presentation was exciting and interactive, but also very touching. After learning about climate change, I'm very interested in creating an environment club in my school to see what changes we can make. At 7 pm we broke into several groups to attend presentations by various George Mason Faculty members. The presentation I watched was about the steps being taken to improve the sustainability of dining at George Mason. We then regrouped to learn some tips about college admission applications from Mason's very own undergraduate admissions officer. The day was jam-packed and I can't wait for tomorrow....after a good night's sleep anyway.
