Sometimes the best college decisions are the ones you do not actually make. π

Say YES to research that matters! At The University of Akron, Dr. Chelsea Miller and her student researchers are getting their hands dirty (literally!) studying how freeze-thaw cycles affect ant populations, and what that means for us in a changing climate.
