ORAU Senior Communications Specialist Michael Holtz spoke at the Health Care 21 Business Coalition Employer Cancer Symposium yesterday afternoon. As a five-year cancer survivor, Michael discussed the difficulties of working while going through cancer treatment and how his co-workers at the time supported him. We are so fortunate to have Michael on our team now and we celebrate all of his accomplishments as he shares his cancer journey.

This week, ORAU's Arlene Garrison, Michael Janney and Krystle Wagemann were in Washington, D.C. for the 254th American Chemical Society Career Fair and Exposition. Thank you to anyone who stopped by our booth to learn more about career opportunities with ORAU!

Victoria Knight is a former ORAU intern, who interned for CNN's health unit this summer. She wrote and got published several pieces for CNN, including this one on filthy food habits. Congratulations, Victoria! http://ow.ly/Ec7T30eAHQW

Pellissippi State Community College's High Altitude Ballooning Team launched a balloon yesterday to study the eclipse in near space. #EdgeofTotality

Employees loved playing with Mali when she visited ORAU for the Health and Safety Fair! Now, the Oak Ridge Animal Shelter needs help finding Mali a fur-ever home.

How we feel today now that the eclipse is over #TotalEclipseoftheHeart

Thanks to WVLT Local 8's Anne Brock for spending most of the day with us. We enjoyed having middle schoolers from the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley with us, and our staff and retirees enjoyed a great eclipse celebration. #EdgeofTotality

Employees with family and friends joined the Boys and Girls Club of the Tennessee Valley for an eclipse viewing party on the #EdgeofTotality.

Thanks to Brittany Crocker at the Knoxville News Sentinel for including ORAU in her round up of eclipse-related activities happening in Oak Ridge today. We have had a great day with the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley and we are looking forward to our employee celebration coming up soon. #EdgeofTotality

The Boys and Girls Clubs got artsy for the eclipse and created chalk art that is out of this world. #EdgeofTotality
