SEEDS Update: Jorge Ramos, SEEDS Student Coordinator

The tables have turned! Now I have the amazing opportunity to be behind-the-scenes at the SEEDS program! Since I joined the SEEDS program on the Lafayette, Lousiana 2004 field trip, my life has not been the same. I participated in two field trips, three ESA annual meetings, and was a SEEDS Undergraduate Research Fellow two years ago. I wouldn’t be where I am and I wouldn’t be the person I am without the support I have received from SEEDS. Now, it is my time to give back and provide other students the opportunities that I enjoyed. Working for ESA with the SEEDS program in Washington, D.C. has been a life changing experience. I have discovered new things about myself and I have found new ways of making a difference in the world. I promise to do my best to serve all the past, present and future SEEDS participants. For all you past and present, SEEDS students, please keep in touch, as we are always anxious to hear about your current achievements and future plans. Future SEEDS students are out there, and they are just waiting for you -yes, you- to forward them this e-mail and invite them to join the SEEDS family!
