Sarah Oliver ‘19, a biology major from Lexington, Ohio, will present “The Summer I Became a Duck Mom,” during an 11 a.m. Forum on Tuesday, Oct. 3, in Bluffton University’s Musselman Library.

Oliver was awarded a Venture Discovery Grant to pursue the research with Bluffton faculty providing feedback and support for the student-led experience.
