Student Research

Summer Programs 2004

A total of 17 summer research students kept Cleaveland and Druckenmiller Halls alive with activity this summer. In addition to their research efforts, the students also went rafting on the Kennebec River and attended a Portland Sea Dogs baseball game. There was again pizza for lunch during Friday research presentations and the occasional trip to Cote's for ice cream. The students who participated in the program are listed below.
