Congratulations to all the Geology & Geophysics students who won an award at the 2017 GGGSC Research Symposium!

The Geology & Geophysics Graduate Student Council (GGGSC) hosted their 10th annual Student Research Symposium on March 30, 2017 in Rudder Tower. Every spring semester, the leadership positions in the GGGSC run a research symposium which includes oral presentations and poster presentations for both graduate students and undergraduate students in the Department of Geology & Geophysics. Various undergraduate and graduate students not only present, but volunteer at the symposium throughout the day. Faculty members and guest judges from various industries, judge the presentations with a grading rubric that is then scored.
