About Us

In May 2025, Washington and Lee University Professors Toni Locy and Jared Macary took 16 students to Barbados to study the impact of climate change and the nation's responses to it. The students split into two teams: Journalism and Strategic Communication. The journalism students reported, wrote and produced news stories and commentary. The Strategic Communication students produced videos and other content for nonprofit organizations that are working to mitigate the effects of climate change.
