Evolution and climate education update: August 31, 2018

[Glenn Branch]

Dear friends of NCSE,

NCSE bids farewell to Claire Adrian-Tucci.

FAREWELL TO CLAIRE ADRIAN-TUCCI

NCSE bids farewell to Claire Adrian-Tucci, who joined NCSE in 2016.
She learned about NCSE while a graduate student in biology and
epidemiology at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, where the Science
Booster Club program was piloted in 2015. After becoming one of the
most valuable volunteers there, she was hired to coordinate NCSE's
teacher outreach programs, NCSEteach and Scientist in the Classroom.
Later, in 2017, she transitioned to help to manage the national
expansion of the Science Booster Club program and to organize the
Washington DC-area Science Booster Club. For her work on the Science
Booster Clubs, she was one of the recipients, along with NCSE's Emily
Schoerning, of the Society for the Study of Evolution's Thomas Henry
Huxley Award in recognition of outreach and education achievement for
early and mid-career scientists. All of us at NCSE wish her the best
in her new endeavors.
