Congratulations to SICCS T3 Fellowship and NSF GRFP awardee Natasha Wesely, who passed her Comprehensive Exam on September 13. Andrew, Mariah Carbone (Biological Sciences) and David Auty (School of Forestry, and SICCS affiliate) comprised the examination committee. A Building 7 celebration of the successful defense followed later in the day. The picture shows visiting PhD student Johanna Kranz (TU-Dresden), and lab members Mostafa, Jacob, and Natasha all arriving at the off-campus location, where they were joined by a dozen or more additional friends, colleagues, and a few random interlopers and party-crashers.
