Of the nearly 20 members of the scientific party on the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution research vessel Knorr this past January and February, three were Hamilton alumni. Boston University Professor of Earth Sciences Rick Murray '85, Heather Schrum '05 and Ashley Hatfield '05 joined an international research team studying the distribution of microbial life beneath the seafloor on a research cruise to the equatorial Pacific Ocean.
Schrum majored in geosciences and participated in field work on two Antarctic cruises in 2004 and 2005 with J.W. Johnson Family Professor of Geosciences Eugene Domack. Hatfield also participated in the 2005 expedition.
