Newspaper practicum students Brittany D’Alesandro, Megan Fernandez and Aleisha Solorio will host a discussion panel with community leaders tonight at 7 p.m. in Shawnee Theater in the Clark Student Center to explore ways that university students can help conserve water as the city enters stage 4 water restrictions.
The panel members include City Manager Darron Leiker, Director of Public Works Russell Schreiber, Public Utilities Operations Manager Daniel Nix, and News Channel Six Chief Meteorologist Ken Johnson. The panelists will discuss how the university will handle the new restrictions, which went into effect on Nov. 12.
Schreiber will break down the process of how the city is using the reuse water project to clarify concerns of students who wish to know the source of their drinking water.
