Jessica Scarfuto is completing a master’s in science and technology journalism at Texas A&M University. During the summer, she interned with the Texas Sea Grant College Program in College Station, Texas, as a science writer for its magazine, Texas Shores. She says: “I wrote two articles and proofread many others about research and development funded by Texas Sea Grant on coastal issues such wetlands restoration and natural disaster preparation. It was great to be able to write about coastal research, and I intend to continue working there on a much more limited basis throughout the school year.” Kristin Spiros created Breakaway Soccer Camp at John Jay High School in Lewisboro, N.Y., where she enjoyed a record-breaking career. “I have had a life fulfilled by soccer in so many ways. It taught me how to work hard, be confident, win and lose,” says Spiros. “If this camp can cause even one girl to fall in love with the game the way I did, then I’ve done my job.” Anthony Dinelli and David Bernat ’12, taking advantage of the BYOB atmosphere of New Jersey’s Morristown-area restaurants, launched Cambridge Wines.
