As reporters on deadline, we often scurry to get quotes and the bare-bones basics as quickly as possible. Spending a week at Metcalf provided an invaluable opportunity to breathe, to spend long periods of informal time with scientists and researchers, and really develop a deeper understanding of how and where they work. Jason Margolis, Reporter, PRI's The World

My fellowship at Metcalf could not have been better organized. It was an intense learning schedule that each day packed in fascinating lectures, field research and classroom time. We covered a broad spectrum of environmental science in a short time, and my understanding of the intricate connections between our ecosystems has increased greatly and will inform my reporting for years to come. Lori Townsend, News Director, The Alaska Public Radio Network, Host, Alaska News Nightly

While I always wanted to do more environmental reporting, I felt intimidated by the scientific language and was unsure about how to deal with these stories. My Metcalf Workshop gave me the tools to look at scientific data and understand the scientific approach. Now, as I research stories on South Africa's coast, my ability to see new angles and understand discussions with marine researchers is opening up a new interest and depth to my reporting. It has been very personally rewarding. Eva Gilliam, Freelance Television and Radio Journalist, Cape Town, South Africa
