E.P.A. Signs Memorandum of Understanding with LeMoyne–Owen College

(04/14/16 - ATLANTA) - On Thursday April 14, 2016, the E.P.A. (EPA) entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with LeMoyne-Owen College to enhance research, teaching, outreach, career development, and stewardship in environmental and mathematical sciences. As a part of the MOU, E.P.A. will commit to enhance the college's environmental policy and science curricula and offer opportunities for students interested in environmental careers.

Carol L. Kemper, Deputy Director, Air, Pesticides & Toxics Management Division, E.P.A. Region four and LeMoyne-Owen President Dr. Andrea Lewis Miller participated in the signing held in Dorothy Harris Lounge of the Alma C. Hanson Student Center on the LeMoyne-Owen campus.

Through this MOU, the partners express their intention to establish cooperative working relationships over the next 3 years, in areas of mutual interest, including participation by the Institutions in the E.P.A. Region four Environmental Science Partnership Program. This MOU is also intended to help to address the dwindling participation of students in environmental fields of study, and to help E.P.A. attract a workforce that is as diverse as the public we serve.
