You probably have no idea what�鶹��ý�s actually in your drinking water. How would you? Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems Professor John Cronin, formerly New York�鶹��ý�s first full-time Hudson Riverkeeper, is aiming to change that. With the help of a donation of over $200K in water testing equipment from General Electric, he founded Seidenberg�鶹��ý�s Blue CoLab.

In this lab, he leads a team of nine students who work with equipment that allows them to test water conditions in real time. They�鶹��ý�re creating apps. Reviewing data. Mapping visualizations. Basically, they�鶹��ý�re working on the technology that will help ensure a future where no one has to wonder what�鶹��ý�s in their drinking water.

"That�鶹��ý�s my calling: training the next generation to make a difference."

�鶹��ý�I�鶹��ý�ve worked for Congress, and for the New York State Legislature. I was the Hudson Riverkeeper for 17 years. I brought all those skills together at Pace. And now at Seidenberg, I�鶹��ý�m able to pursue what is needed: more innovation, better use of technology, how to protect people in real time,�鶹��ý� says Cronin. �鶹��ý�I want to pass on those skills and give students real opportunities. Show them what is possible. That�鶹��ý�s my calling: training the next generation to make a difference.�鶹��ý�
