Hurricane Florence Recovery at UNC-Wilmington and Fort Fisher


From the December 20, 2018, Chronicle of Higher Education "How professors used hurricane-recovery grants to further their teaching"  by Cailin Crowe.

The University of North Carolina - Wilmington was badly hit by this past fall's Hurricane Florence.  School was closed for its 17,000 students for four weeks.

But, $21,000 in grants was shared by 42 professors.

The Earth and Ocean Department took students to Fort Fisher with its grant money.  While there, they assessed storm damage, coastal conservation and environmental preservation.
