Visited our local morning TV news program to talk about Young Sound Seekers and Stetson University. Glad I was joined by Marvel and Chaylee, who shared their perspective as students working on this experiential learning project.

"Canaveral National Seashore is the best classroom I've ever worked in. Every time I lead a Young Sound Seekers excursion or take students from Stetson, I am filled with gratitude that we have a place like Canaveral nearby. 1/4

Getting ready to leave for New Orleans & the Acoustical Society of America meeting. I'm excited to present in the education block about a speed of sound demo developed for Young Sound Seekers. My lesson design uses common field recording gear to make the speed of sound audible in real-time. 1/2

Tuesday, part 2 - Took the L to Wrigley Field. Many updates to the ballpark since the last time we were here, but the atmosphere remains unmatched in baseball. This is the greatest place to watch a game, especially when the Cubs score 3 in the 9th to walk off with a win! ⚾️ 🧢

Hello Chicago! 👋

Spending a few days in the Windy City with dad & my family. Less than 24 hours & we’ve already checked 2 things off our must-do list:
✅ ride the L 🚃
✅ eat deep dish pizza 🍕

Group photo with the Young Sound Seekers. This photo was taken on the Stetson campus at our final monthly outing. The group of 19 is posing by Holler fountain, a landmark in the center of campus. Behind us are tall palm trees, while the ground beneath us is brick pavers.

Because I'm usually leading the group, I don't have the best pictures. My awesome student assistants will share better ones later on Instagram (Follow us there! -> yngsoundseekers). I'm just posting a few images to mark this milestone.

Today was the final monthly excursion for @yngsoundseekers. Lots of emotions as I reflect on 5 years of adventures with these kids. Above all, I'm super proud of all that we accomplished together!

When leaders normalize calling others ‘enemies,’ we should all be alarmed. When rhetoric turns into action, as we’ve already seen with attacks on higher education, we can’t ignore it. #HigherEd #HigherEducation 1/3
