Calvin Mako to participate in Keck Geology Consortium summer research project

Calvin Mako, an ERS major and member of the Honors College, has been invited to participate in a highly selective undergraduate research program run by the Keck Geology Consortium. The Consortium organizes several projects each summer in which undergraduates have the opportunity to work with faculty from around the country on cutting-edge research projects.

Calvin will work with several other students as well as Professors William Peck from Colgate University and Steve Dunn and Michelle Markley from Mt. Holyoke College on the Central Metasedimentary Belt Boundary Zone in Ontario, Canada. Calvin will work with Assistant Professor Christopher Gerbi upon his return to campus. As part of the project, Calvin will complete a thesis on his chosen research area and present his results at a spring meeting of the Consortium.
