GLIN==> Ohio student awarded Ratza scholarship by the Great Lakes Commission

[Christine Manninen <manninen@glc.org>]

Amber Miller, a first-year student in Political Science and 
Environmental Biology at the University of Dayton (Ohio), is the winner 
of the 2002 Carol A. Ratza Memorial Scholarship, sponsored by the Great 
Lakes Commission. See http://www.glc.org/announce/02/5-02miller.html

"Through my studies, I hope to help stop or slow the pollution in the 
Great Lakes region by finding alternatives for municipal and industrial 
water/waste disposal," Miller says. "I would also like to educate future 
generations of environmentalists about the importance of keeping the 
Great Lakes clean and in better condition than they found them."

Miller plans to finish her undergraduate studies at the University of 
Dayton by 2005 and then attend law school, with a concentration in 
environmental and medical law. She also hopes to pursue a doctorate in 
biology and, ultimately, become a professor of biology at a Great Lakes 
university.

The scholarship is in memory of Carol Ratza 
<http://www.great-lakes.net/lists/carol/>, a veteran employee of the 
Great Lakes Commission and a staunch supporter of the lakes.
