Tremaine Phillips wins Featherstone Award Tremaine's curiosity about our planet and species led him to major in Environmental Economics and Policy in the Department of Agricultural Economics. His passion is promoting economic development in ways that are environmentally sustainable. He has participated on research in this area in Houghton, MI, and in Australia. He has put his skills to work on two Alternative Spring Breaks in New Orleans, and he has participated in policy making with the Nissan-WWF Environmental Leadership Program in Washington, DC, and Brazil. In line with "think globally, act locally," Tremaine is a student researcher for MSU's Office of Campus Sustainability, mentors peers as a teacher assistant, and has leadership positions in several student organizations. For example, he was one of the students who spoke to the MSU Board of Trustees, leading to their decision to greatly expand the MSU recycling program. Tremaine was nominated by Scott Swinton, Professor of Agricultural Economics in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
