Scott D. Miller, president of Virginia Wesleyan University, writes: For our students at Virginia Wesleyan, the bay and what feeds into it make up the ultimate science lab. We’re conducting research and building outreach programming on the realities of the watershed. We applaud the valuable work of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the Virginia Aquarium, the Virginia Marine Science Center and other Virginia Wesleyan partners whose research and monitoring contribute to the health of the bay.
