Fwd: program information
Good morning,
Here is some information about the SEAS Your Tomorrow Program at the University of the Virgin Islands.
The SEAS Your Tomorrow Program at the University of the Virgin Islands is a career pathway program designed to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in the marine sciences and to engage more Virgin Islanders to become interested in the ocean sciences. It includes (1) field experiences in the marine sciences for middle and high school students through the Youth Ocean Explorers Program (a 4-week summer program), (2) early field research and professional internship experiences for UVI college students in marine science fields (6 week summer program, partners include The Nature Conservancy, Ocean & Coastal Observing, Virgin Islands, among others), and (3) the Bridge to the Ph.D. Program with Penn State University (8 week summer program where Masters in Marine & Environmental Science from UVI travel to Penn State to receive additional training at an RI institution (Pennsylvania State University). Across program components, participants receive mentoring, career planning, and family support programming to support student success. Major funders of this program have included the National Science Foundation, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Community Foundation of the Virgin Islands.

or watch our video (also on our website)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=petoq31qry0
Highlights from the first two years of the program include:
• SEAS Your Tomorrow was able to leverage additional funds and community partnerships to secure funding for 1 additional year through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Environmental Education, Environmental Education Local Grants Program for Region 2 in the amount of $100,000 with $33,333 in matching funds from the Community Foundation of the Virgin Islands.
• $53,500 in additional funding from private business and two local family foundations were secured to support the Youth Ocean Explorers program in July 2018 ($38,500 from Tropical Shipping; $5,000 from the Prior Family Foundation; $10,000 from the Lana Vento Charitable Trust).
• 2017 SEAS Your Tomorrow Bridge Program fellow, Katharine Egan, successfully defended her Masters thesis in December 2018 and was selected as a 2019 finalist for the National Oceanic &
EFTA01013222
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Knauss Fellowship Program and placed into NOAA's Office of Ocean Exploration & Research where she will work for the next year.
• Three of 8 SEAS Your Tomorrow Bridge Program fellows have applied to Ph.D. programs as a result of their participation in the Program (2017 and 2018 cohorts combined). An additional three fellows state their intention to apply, but have not yet at the time of this report.
• 2017 SEAS Your Tomorrow undergraduate researcher, Jendahye Antoine, was selected as one of eight, undergraduate scholarship recipients nationally for NOAA's 2018-2019 Educational Partnership Program with Minority-Serving Institutions. This program provides NOAA internships across two summers, one-on-one-mentoring with NOAA professionals, plus up to $45,000 for two academic years to support tuition and fees, attend a conference where their research is presented, and other allowable expenses. Jendahye will be attending the 2019 Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceangraphy's Aquatic Sciences Meeting in February 2019 where she will present her coral reef research with Dr. Marilyn Brandt. While she was a SEAS fellow, Jendahye worked with mentors from NOAA through the National Coral Reef Monitoring Program and with Dr. Marilyn Brandt on an NSF EAGER Award (#1712540) focused on coral reef ecology.
• SEAS Your Tomorrow Youth Ocean Explorers 2017 mentor, VerNele Callwood, is now a freshman at the University of the Virgin Islands, majoring in Marine Biology. SEAS Your Tomorrow Youth Ocean Explorers 2018 mentor, Kevin Callwood is now a freshman at Albany State College, majoring in Biology.
Please let me know if you need additional information or if I can answer any questions.
Checks should be made out to the University of the Virgin Islands. The memo line should state, "SEAS Your Tomorrow, Kristin Grimes PI." The University closes today until January 2, 2019, so no one will be here to receive and process the check until the new year — hopefully that isn't a problem.
Thank you for thinking of our program!
