My fellowship experience
“Not only did this project give me the opportunity to see
real field work in action, I was also able to make connections with many of the
other classes I had taken at Cornell in the Geology Department.”

Aims of the Fellowship
The purpose of this project was to investigate the evidence
for a Devils Point Event (DPE). A DPE is a period of rapid sea level change,
which increases 4 m and then decreases 6 m in a period of 1500 to 3000 years.
