Seven students from the Geoscience Department presented their research at the 2011 Northeastern/North-Central regional meeting of the Geological Society of America.
The meeting, in Pittsburgh this year, attracts geologists from around the region to present their research on a variety of geological topics.
Senior Ellen Lamont was selected to give an oral presentation, while the remainder were selected to present posters.
