The Lincoln Flying Squirrel Squad is a community-based project with a focus on

  • East Campus flying squirrels
  • outdoor/ educational education
  • Calvert Elementary School
  • the surrounding neighborhood

Our primary goal is to strengthen community bonds and facilitate conversation with our neighbors. We also aim to increase local resident interactions with wildlife and encourage spending time outdoors.

We seek to create educational pathways for students from diverse backgrounds, enabling them to pursue education at UNL and careers in STEM.
