#CNMWitD Student Projects (2016)

The Water in the Desert Project (#CNMWitD) in 2016 was a 4-week, campus-wide, hands-on learning project centered on western water issues. It consisted of a service (field trips, activities), film and speaker series.

Participating students showcased their newfound knowledge about water resources issues as their class projects or service learning projects.
