Grub Burger Bar, Chipotle Mexican Grill, & Blaze Pizza Share-It Nights

Share-It Nights are a common way for students to raise funding and awareness for their cause in Tallahassee. Our cause was to raise awareness of citrus greening disease and synthetic biology. During these nights, we discussed these topics with people and tried to help them understand any misconceptions about synthetic biology. If someone was unaware of what citrus greening was we educated them on what it is, how it spreads, and what the vector of the disease is.
