Did you know that through the remainder of February (that’s today and tomorrow, people) the Tennessee Aquarium is offering half-price admission to college students, faculty, staff and their families?

To receive the discount, you’ll just need to present your ID, transcript or pay stub.

Study break, anyone?

More good news: The rain has stopped. Finally. (But more than 10 inches of rain fell, making February the third wettest on record.)

In other news, the vacant, blighted duplex on Milne Street could soon benefit from the newly formed Chattanooga Affordable Housing Fund, which will invest $5 million in affordable housing.

Moreover, Tennessee environmental officials have awarded $1.9 million waste reduction grants for community projects across the state.
