Subject: Job postings for undergrads
Hi Jim,

Some job postings to share with undergrads! First, I am looking for a student with an interest in natural resources communication in Extension; see the attached posting.

I've also seen a few new 4-H Program Coordinator jobs open recently. Three forwarded below and another was reopened for Clare County (Posting Number: 732619). Some FW students might be interested if they like working with youth! Program coordinators should be responsive to the interests of youth in their county, but often their programming can also be informed by their own interests/expertise, so it would be awesome to have more fisheries/wildlife folks leading 4-H efforts 🙂

Thanks!
Alexa
