Thanks to a Dickinson scholarship, Claire Jordy 17 now helps preserve Pennsylvania waterways
Growing up in the high desert of New Mexico, Claire Jordy ’17 developed a passion for environmental issues and even spent some time living in a sustainable Earthship. She arrived at Dickinson with plans for a career in sustainable agriculture, but soon discovered a vital area of sustainability she hadn’t focused on before.
Now, she’s a water resource planner at the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, connecting work in 148 Pennsylvania municipalities with applicable state and federal water policies and regulations.
She notes that her Dickinson scholarship made it all possible.
