What a fun episode for you to watch if possible! Check it out on Union's YouTube if you can.

In this week's conversation we talk with Dr.Micah Fern from our Biology department for a fun and informative conversation about his love for animals, how we can best respect all animals and God's creation of them. His beloved barred owl, Athena, joins us for the conversation and you will fall in love with her as you watch her sit so beautifully at the table with us.

Dr. Fern commonly teaches Wildlife Biology, Global Biology, and Ecology and Conservation of the Vertebrates.

You can learn more about the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center here.

You can follow Dr. Fern's YouTube channel named Wild Fern here.

Tristan is a senior from Northern Ireland and a member of the men's cross country team. During this conversation, Tristan takes us through his Catholic upbringing and how he found a personal relationship with Christ through his teammates, coach, and his local church.

Tristan shares his story with honesty, humility, and great passion. He is currently in his final season as a cross country athlete and not sure what will happen after graduation in May of 2025, but he knows the Lord has a really good plan for his life and he trusts He will reveal that to him in just the right time.
