Both Collin and Eddy have received other recognition for their work: Collin is the recipient of a NASA Virginia Space Grant Consortium 2011-2012 Graduate STEM Research Fellowship and Eddy is the first W&M student to receive a Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship. Both expect to defend their dissertations this spring and both are currently searching for positions.
