Abstract
Soil and water samples collected from the Rochester Institute of Technology campus were analyzed for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Whole-genome sequencing and annotation were conducted on seven isolates that show a diverse range of resistance patterns, underscoring the urgent need for ongoing surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in the environment.
