Tower-Pinkster will award $2,000 to a student who has an interest in sustainability issues each academic year for the next five years, starting in 2009-2010.  Financial need will be considered. This year’s recipient is Anne Weir ’10, an economics major from Saline, Mich., who is currently working on a Senior Individualized Project focusing on the economics of sustainability. Anne, who is also the current student commission president, studied abroad during her junior year in Aberdeen, Scotland. After graduation, she plans to attend graduate school, possibly in the field of public policy as it pertains to sustainability. Here, she is pictured with TowerPinkster CEO Arnie Mikon.
