Some graduate students crave the opportunity to share their knowledge and do hands-on science with the public. Emily leveraged that experience into one of the cooler jobs in our field—with the @NOAA_OMAO NOAA Corps!
“Delaware is small and they have the connections that students could really use as a good resource for career advice or for internships, like what I was able to do," DESG alum and @NOAA_OMAO Lieutenant Junior Grade Emily Ruhl says.

Education is key to #SeaGrantExtension work. Making topics understandable and relevant to people's lives and interests--#bluecrab "mustard" should be avoided! Another important #SeaGrantSkills is working with the press. They can deliver information to wide array of audiences.
@BaltimoreMemes From Maryland Sea Grant: mustard Yellow substance found inside a cooked crab. Contrary to popular belief, the "mustard" is not fat, rather it's the crab's hepatopancreas, the organ responsible for filtering impurities from the crab's blood. Although many find its flavor

This was a missed teachable moment from whatever dept this stemmed from. Hopefully they can turn it around into a marketing ploy, "Look at this cool stuff we do in our labs!" *Side note: I love that the controlled detonation drew a crowd, and they cheered when it went, "boom."
