Today was a lovely day! While I learned to sip (not swallow) coffee, maiden lectures were being delivered by my bright and chirpy friends, Dan Friess in GE4207 Coastal Management over at Geography (his soul still belongs to us) and Mary Rose Posa (aka Mingko) with the LSM2251 Ecology and the Environment class!
Honours student and mangrove disciple Rick Leong was at his shifu’s lecture and facebook-ed us some highlights.
Dan let Jeremy Jackson sum it up with his depressing,
“How we wrecked the ocean” TED talk(ouch)
Back in Science, Mingko worked the room at the first Ecology lecture this semester. Thanks to Erica Sena Neves, we have some witness of her first foray in awakening young minds to the fundamentals of ecology.
Roaming the room with the wireless microphone!
We’re all excited to have Dan and Mingko out there, fighting the good fight. All the best in the semester ahead and congrats to the students to having two more enthusiastic educators in their stable!






Well done Dan and Mingko
Thanks Siva! I mentioned Navjot in my lecture too – and I decided to do the roaming with a wireless microphone after I saw you do it last sem
Yeah, way to go Mingko, he is certainly well remembered by us all! Wireless roaming is the best – there is no safe corner of the LT anymore!
