SCSU Earth Science students and faculty attended the 61st annual Northeastern Section Meeting of the Geological Society of America this past week. From attending technical sessions to mentor luncheons, everyone learned and took advantage of the networking opportunities. Three of our majors successfully presented the results of their research projects on work done in Connecticut and Vermont. Great job, Gary, Wyatt and Arrebah! Dr. Cooper Boemmels co-chaired a session on Mesozoic Magmatism and Postrift Techtonics and presented research results on her work in Vermont. &sciences
