LAE students work with other UF departments
for Campus RainWorks Challenge
Team members include LAE students Jabari Taylor, Brenda Lugano, Tracy Wyman, Jayne Branstrom, Hannah Plate and Josh Evitt, Project Manager
Emily Sturm, agricultural and biological engineering student Wesley Henson, environmental engineering student Tracy Fanara and LAE Faculty Adviser
Glenn Acomb.
What happens when students from Landscape Architecture, Soil & Water Sciences, Environmental Horticulture, Environmental Engineering and Agricultural & Biological Engineering work together on the same team? A submission in the inaugural Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Campus RainWorks Challenge.
The team's goal was to raise awareness of and heighten the relationship between humans and water by creating a "journey of water" that represents the movement, processes and properties of stormwater as it falls, flows and eventually spills out into Lake Alice. The project site where the journey takes place is in the heart of UF's campus, the Reitz Union.
