Friday night, actress Kristen Bell was a guest on the Late Show with David Letterman to promote her new show “House of Lies” airing on Showtime. During the interview, Kristen talked about a recent shark diving experience in South Africa, and even brought up her shark tagging experience with the Rosenstiel School’s very own R.J. Dunlap Marine Conservation Program this past year at Summit Series.

The shark bit begins around the 21:20 mark here.

Rosenstiel School student David Shiffman is a finalist for a $10,000 scholarship for his work with online conservation, advocacy and science education. It’s a close race and the final decision comes to votes! He needs your help! David is the only marine science candidate.

If he wins, the money will be used to support ongoing research and outreach at RSMAS, including adopting a satellite tagged shark (this long-term project recently resulted in the protection of four shark species in Florida waters) and continuing the RJ Dunlap‘s program of taking hundreds of high school students and teachers into the field to learn about science and conservation while they catch sharks.

Please Vote for David on the College Scholarships website once per day.
