Stephani with her poster on the magnetic properties of soils.
Stephani is a senior working with Prof. Geiss on the magnetic properties of soils. This was her first conference, and here is what she has to say about it:
The 48th Annual North Eastern Section Geological Society of America meeting was my first opportunity to venture north of Connecticut and also to get more information on current studies in my field of interest. I presented my research project on the magnetization of soil by fire. Standing beside my poster and explaining the results to geologists and other students was one of the most rewarding experiences of my academic career. I enjoyed traveling with other Trinity students and feeling part of a significant group of researchers.
