In this episode of GridgeFridge, we sit down with UW-Madison's new and current Newman Civic Fellow, Devin Guthrie.

Devin's work exists at the intersection of environmental science, justice, and community engagement. President of We Outside, Devin has created opportunities for underrepresented students to access the outdoors. He has facilitated activities ranging from horseback riding to camping, while simultaneously pushing for more inclusive conversations about sustainability on campus.

Devin’s journey started in Milwaukee, WI, where his background sparked a passion for nature and a recognition of environmental disparities. Now, through his fellowship and leadership roles, he’s focused on building stronger connections between UW and surrounding communities, uplifting underrepresented voices, and shaping what a more equitable environmental future could look like.
