    We got a taste of #WinterWeather on campus today, but that's not the last of it for the weekend. As we brace for what could be a significant snowfall, remember to buy some extra hot cocoa #OutOfAnAbundanceOfCaution, #Seawolves. 🔥 🍫 🌊 🐺 ❄️ ⛄️ #WinterIsComing #StonyBrookU #SnowyBrook #StonyBrookUniversity #HigherEducation
    The beautiful part of visiting the @StonyBrookMed each week is of course seeing the children light up upon seeing Brody enter their room. My heart sings as they pet him, talk to him, stare at him, giggle at him and kiss him. I am always amazed at how much comfort a dog can bring to human beings. I often look in each child's eyes as they stare at his silly face and I know that for an instant they are feeling a moment of peace and possibly even a few minutes of joy. He distracts them for just a little bit from whatever they are going through and when he does that, I feel complete. As we travel the hallways the nurses, technicians, doctors and staff members always make a fuss over Brody and I sometimes hear them say "this is just what I needed." Those are the moments in where I am reminded just how amazing it feels to share him and give back. – Debbie Hurley #SBUsnapshots #TherapyDog #TherapyAnimal #TherapyPets #FarBeyond
    I really wanted to do something that would make a change. I’m studying marine biology so I can eventually conduct world changing research, but right now I can’t do that. I wanted to do something now before the oceans are destroyed even more ... I started my own apparel company where my original ocean designs are sold to raise money for ocean conservation. 100% of profits are donated each month to a different ocean conservation nonprofit! – Sydney Bell '22 #SBUsnapshots @tidalteesapparel #StonyBrookU #StonyBrookUniversity #HigherEducation #FarBeyond
    #Repost @ollieshipley27: On our latest trip to #Eleuthera we are working with @ceibahamas @exerpbahamas to understand resource use dynamics of nurse and Caribbean reef #sharks. We safely secure animals to the side of the research vessel, take the samples we need, and release animals safely and quickly in under 7 minutes. Graduate students from @stonybrooku have been integral to our success and we are extremely grateful for ongoing support from friends and collaborators. #bahamas #sharkresearch #education #outreach #stonybrooku #stonybrookuniversity
