Heather Schrum '05, a geology major, was quoted in an article in the Observer-Dispatch about an expedition to Antarctica in which she participated. She was a member of a team led by Professor of Geology Eugene Domack and including Jemma Kirkwood '05 and Stephanie Higgins '04, which discovered an undersea volcano. Originally, the team intended to study the stability of the Larsen Ice Shelf, which collapsed several years ago. "It was amazing because we weren't there to find a volcano," Schrum said.
