Phoebe Folgelman decided to join the Haslam Scholars Program at the University of Tennessee as a chemical engineering student after seeing the program as “a unique opportunity because the participants are continuously challenged to think about and respond to problems to which viable solutions do not currently exist.”
Phoebe chose the HSP because it fit her requirement of a program that would prepare her to understand the problems we face in a changing world. Phoebe spent her summer volunteering at Habitat for Humanity and planting a vegetable garden.
