Alumni News
Greetings once again from Lathrop Hall. Our last newsletter went out almost three years ago, and so it is time to inform everyone of the latest doings in the Geology Department at Colgate. As the items that follow suggest, this remains an active, vibrant department. Much of our attention in the last couple of years has been on hiring and planning for the future, but our central focus remains our students. The number of graduating majors has been in the mid-20's for the past few years. Our most recent classes graduated 16 students in 1999 and 27 in 1998. These are healthy numbers, and allow us to provide high-quality research opportunities to interested majors. We have had good support from the Colgate administration for summer stipends for student researchers, and we continue to build the department's own funding sources.
Contributions to the DepartmentWe all want to thank those who have donated to the geology department over the last two years. If you are planning to give money to Colgate, you can specify that your contribution go directly to the Geology Department. If you wish, you can specify that it go into one of our endowed funds for students: The Norma Vergo Fund or the Bob Linsley Fund. The following have contributed to the department since the last newsletter (our apologies if we have missed anyone!).
