Millennium Fellowship Project: Banning the Straw That Will Break Mother Nature’s Back
Our plan was to ban plastic straws on campus. We talked with companies and local businesses to accomplish our goal. We did a table stand to spread the word to students and staff on what were doing. We then ended with an event. We now have paper straws.
About the Millennium Fellow
I am a sophomore at Lynn University. I am studying Communications and Emerging Media. As a person, I am kindhearted and sympathetic for others. I believe it is important help out as much as possible. I know there many opportunities one can have with a communications major. I can only imagine what I could do with my major. I am aiming towards working in a non profit organization.
