Hello Dr. Lowery -

We are going to need a fall intern this year. We really enjoyed having our spring intern, Jonathan Fitzgerald, but he didn't get much meaningful field work due to the combination of the rains this spring and two of our major projects finishing up in February. We are sorry about that, because my husband was a co-op student “back in the day” when he was in college, and we really believe in the opportunities that internships and co-op experiences should provide. But there's not much we can do about the weather (because if there were, we would do it and our spring would not have been nearly as unprofitable!!!!).
