Cassandra Guzman doesn\u2019t get home much anymore. A senior marine science<\/a> student at Eckerd College who lives in Christiansted, U.S. Virgin Islands, Cassandra has spent large parts of the past two summers working with Eckerd faculty on research projects on Tampa Bay, on the Caribbean island of Dominica and on a Scientist at Sea research vessel in the Gulf of Mexico.<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”32″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”right” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\u201cThat first summer, I asked my parents if I could stay at Eckerd and do research projects with Dr. Gregg Brooks<\/a> [professor of marine science and geosciences] and Dr. Rebekka Larson<\/a> [\u201901, marine science instructor]. \u201cMy parents said, \u2018Go do it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Undergraduate research in marine science sets Eckerd apart and is a highlight of the program, Larson says. \u201cIt gives students the opportunity to do research at the undergraduate level, and in some cases on the same scale as students get in graduate programs. The benefit to the students is that they are more competitive when they look for future opportunities, either in research, the workforce or graduate programs.<\/p>\n

\u201cCassandra has taken on all the opportunities and excelled at them,\u201d Larson adds. \u201cShe was going to do well anywhere she went. Research programs like the one we have open doors that these students can walk through and take as far as they want. She\u2019s turning her research into a thesis that we see as something publishable in the scientific literature.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Cassandra\u2019s research field expanded when she received support from the Conover Undergraduate Research Endowed Fund. The endowment was established in 2022 by David Conover \u201975 and his wife, Margaret<\/a>, and supports Eckerd students majoring in the natural and social sciences in their undergraduate research projects, with preference given to marine science students and a strong preference for marine biology students. The Conovers directed that the awards be based on the originality of the research, be a minimum of $1,000, and should assist as many students as possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Conover Fund award allows me to continue my research on the impacts of the 2021 Piney Point emergency discharge of phosphate-rich wastewater on the Tampa Bay floor,\u201d Cassandra says. \u201cThe research is a blend of understanding our environment and determining better ways to use our instruments to analyze similar events. The funding will help support the acquisition and analysis of more samples, creating a more cohesive database of the environment prior to the event and its reaction to the discharge.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”8825″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”16″][vc_column_text]Cassandra Guzman on the College’s 24′ Capehorn research vessel collecting pH, dissolved oxygen, salinity, and temperature measurements in Tampa Bay for the ongoing Piney Point discharge analysis.

\u201cAs a freshman at Eckerd,\u201d she adds, \u201creceiving funds for an undergraduate thesis did not seem plausible. Today, as a senior receiving this award, nothing seems implausible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cassandra credits Larson and Brooks \u201cfor being my guides in this big project and being walls I can reflect my ideas off of. I can always rely on them to push my thinking and questions when I do not think I could possibly ask any more.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, I\u2019m also thankful for the lessons my parents taught me,\u201d she stresses, \u201cone of them being that I can waste time and energy being scared that I will fail before I\u2019ve even started, or I can get up and do the thing that scares me and work hard to swim instead of sink.\u201d<\/p>\n

Graduate school in marine geology, Cassandra says, is her endgame. \u201cBut I would prefer to take a year working on other research projects or in the job market, whether in Florida or in another state or country. This would be to gain more tools for my toolbox in order to push myself to jump into the rabbit hole of questions I\u2019m scared to ask, eventually guiding me to a master\u2019s and a Ph.D.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
