Mango Crazy by Evan Apt
Plant Biology students took the summer by the stem, by the handle, and even by the cactus—interning all over the country and getting real-world experience.
Sixteen plant biology majors and minors were engaged in internships during 2014, mostly during the summer, and many of them through the Department of Environmental and Plant Biology pipeline internships program.
