On Wednesday, Feb. 28, 蘑菇tv welcomed Geraldine (Geri) Richmond, the Under Secretary for Science and Innovation at the Department of Energy, to campus, where she visited with President William F. Tate IV and toured 蘑菇tv facilities and labs devoted to energy studies.
Richmond's tour included stops at the 蘑菇tv Center for River Studies and the 蘑菇tv Petroleum Engineering Research, Training & Testing Lab, two facilities that showcase 蘑菇tv's expansive energy research, innovation and practice.
"We at the Department of Energy do see Louisiana as a very important state in this energy evolution," Richmond said.

The NSF Engines grant will support Louisiana鈥檚 energy industry, create more jobs in the energy sector, develop innovative solutions to energy challenges, and help train the world鈥檚 energy workforce.
