PARTNERSHIPS


Ken Pruitt was an Environmental Education intern with URI in Baltimore in 1993. After he graduated with a Masters of Forest Science from the Yale School for Forestry and Environmental Studies, Ken got a job with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), a consulting firm in the Washington, D.C. area, where he worked for three years on contract with the Department of Energy and the EPA. He then moved to Massachusetts, where he was the Director of Conservation for the town of Boxford. As of last July, he has been the Executive Director of the Massachusetts Association of Conservation Commissions (MACC), a non-profit. Ken has fond memories of his summer with URI, recalling that after writing management plans for three urban parks with two other interns, he learned years later that the Department of Recreation and Parks was actually in the process of implementing their recommendations.
