Talk about Shoals Internships
GoShoals | 11:12 pm | December 4, 2008 | News
Dear Shoals Alums!
I’m very pleased to invite you to the first Shoals Marine Lab Dinner Discussion on Dec. 9, 2008, from 6-7 pm in room 302a of Appel Commons. If you are getting dinner at Appel either by swiping a card or by paying cash, please arrive early in time to join us upstairs with your meal promptly at 6 pm.
Details: Our discussion leader will be Dr. Chuck Greene (faculty member in Earth and Atmospheric Systems), who will be speaking about his oceanography career, the difference between oceanography and marine biology as fields of study, his recent research in the Gulf of Maine, and anything else you’d like to discuss with him. Dr. Greene designed the marine biology specialization (in the EEB concentration) at Cornell, so you could discuss that with him as well.
This event is open to all Cornell students, so if you have a friend who is interested in taking a course or applying for a paid internship at Shoals Marine Lab, please bring him/her along! Space at the table is limited, however, so I need you to RSVP for this dinner discussion. Please respond by replying to this email shoals-lab@cornell.edu (and copy me at rhs4@cornell.edu ).
I hope you can attend! See you next week.
Sincerely,
Robin Hadlock Seeley, Ph.D
New Course!
