Nina Schoch, D.V.M., will present a lecture, "The Adirondack Cooperative Loon Program: A New Approach to Understanding Wildlife," on Tuesday, March 30, at 7:30 p.m. in the K-J Red Pit. Her lecture is the next program in the Arthur Levitt Public Affairs Center speaker series, "The Environment: Public Policy and Social Responsibility."

Schoch is the program coordinator for the Adirondack Cooperative Loon Program, based in Ray Brook, N.Y. She initially began working with contaminant research in loons in 1998, which evolved into the Adirondack Cooperative Loon Program (ACLP). ACLP conducts research and education projects to better understand the natural history of Common Loons and factors that impact the Adirondack loon population.

In addition to her veterinary degree, Schoch also holds a bachelor's degree in biology and a master's in natural resources/wildlife management. As ACLP's Program Coordinator, Schoch focuses her work on conservation efforts to protect the environment and its wild and human inhabitants in the Adirondack Park. She has published working papers, reports, and articles for the Wildlife Conservation Society, the BioDiversity Research Institute, Adirondack Nature Conservancy/Adirondack Land Trust and in Conservationist magazine.

The leture is hosted by the department of Comparative Literature and co-sponsored by the Dean of Faculty.
