The students were chosen for the City of Columbus presentation from a “consulting company merger” of the top two groups presenting at OSU.
The newly-formed team, Novice Hydrophilics Consultant Group, consisted of Raj Bhosale, Aubrey Neimeier, Amy West, Stephanie Brim and Randall Berkley. A second group that consisted of Cody Chandler, Sid Hoover, Anton Rosi, and Supreya Kesavan, presented a separate proposal to representatives of the Del-Co Water Company in Delware County on Thursday, April 28th.
