Mireya Ramirez is a third-year Environmental Science major focusing on Geochemistry, Sustainability, & Oceanography. She currently works with Dr Bracco's research group on Modeling Microplastics in the Gulf of Mexico where she uses programming to process data for where Microplastics might settle from an oceanographic model. She also works as a TA for a Lab section of Habitable Planet, a Student Assistant for the Explore LLC Program, and as the Lead RA for a freshman community on West Campus.

Will Stevens is a third-year undergraduate majoring in Earth and Atmospheric Science. He focusses on Paleoceanography and paleoclimatology hoping to one day contribute to solving the ever-growing problem of climate change. Will is currently working under Dr. Jean Lynch-Stieglitz on a senior thesis which focusses on creating the first core-top calibration for reconstructing past oxygen concentrations in the Florida Strait using foraminiferal porosity. He also participated in a research cruise under Dr.

Nicolas Miranda is a third-year undergraduate majoring in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences and minoring in Computational Data Analysis. He hopes to become a professional meteorologist, using the knowledge and skills he has gained throughout his education to save lives, be it through a government, research, or broadcast job.

Madeline Laesser is a fourth-year undergraduate majoring in atmospheric and oceanic sciences. She focuses on meteorology, and her academic interests include severe weather, weather in a changing climate, and tropical and extratropical cyclones. In this past year, she completed an internship at the National Weather Service (NWS) in Peachtree City, GA and a summer internship at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory and Princeton University. Currently, she is an undergraduate researcher with Dr.

Marcus Kurth is a fourth-year solid earth and planetary sciences undergraduate with a minor in international affairs. His academic interests include seismology, geomorphology, and tectonics. He has conducted research in Dr. Lang's lab determining sediment provenance using Raman spectroscopy as well as worked as a seismometer technician for Dr. Newman's lab group. He received the President's Undergraduate Research Award in Fall 2023 to fund his continued research.

Isaac Sipp-Alpers is a fourth-year EAS undergraduate with a minor in chemistry and biochemistry. His academic interests revolve around the usage of chemistry to understand the past and present of Earth’s oceans and climate. Isaac conducts paleoceanography research with Dr. Lynch-Stieglitz’s lab group, with a focus on changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation during the Last Interglacial Period. He received the 2023-2024 Rutt Bridges Award, with which he funded a research trip to Boulder, Colorado in February 2024.

Quincey Nielson is a rising fourth-year undergraduate majoring in Solid Earth and Planetary Science whose academic interests include subduction zone seismicity and bathymetric data analysis. She is an undergraduate researcher working under Dr Newman to study the tsunamigenic properties of normal faults along the Puerto Rico Trench. Quincey is currently a field engineer intern for EarthScope Consortium and is spending the summer repairing GNSS stations and seismic monitoring equipment throughout Alaska.

Kylee Graham is a fifth-year EAS undergraduate with a concentration in environmental science set to graduate in the Fall of 2024. Her academic interests include biogeochemistry, waste-water management, and environmental health. Kylee is an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Glass’s lab studying methylotrophic microorganisms and REEs under master’s student Leilani Warters.  She is also currently interning at an environmental consulting firm. Kylee is involved as a member of SGE and Alpha Omega Campus Ministry.
