The School of Marine and Environmental Affairs welcomed faculty, students, alumni, partners, and friends to the 2025 SMEA Community Reception, an evening dedicated to connection, conversation, and community.

Held as a gathering space for the broader SMEA network, the reception provided an opportunity to reconnect with colleagues, meet new members of our community, and celebrate the shared work that advances marine and environmental solutions. The evening highlighted the strength of SMEA’s interdisciplinary community and the collaborations that continue to shape our teaching, research, and engagement.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event a success. We look forward to continuing these conversations and building momentum together in the year ahead.
