The National Wildlife Federation (NWF) awarded UW-River Falls graduate student Ian Johnson a fellowship in the Campus Ecology Program with a $5,000 grant for his thesis study in sustainability, Dec. 14.

The 2009 NWF’s Campus Ecology fellows—17 total, met in Washington, D.C., for a training conference March 6-9.
The meetings and brainstorming sessions were long, but a good time, Johnson, who is in his second year in UWRF’s sustainable community development program (SCD) said, because everyone was on the same ecological page so-to-speak.
