This REU award is for a number of geological research projects which are both tractable to undergraduate juniors and seniors, and are of significance in refining understanding of the Taconic Fold/Thrust Belt, the Cambro-Ordovician Platform and the Adirondack Massif of eastern New York and western Vermont. Four faculty will supervise ten students in a 5-week summer field program with a full-semester follow up, possibly at other institutions. This structure follows the model of Colgate's regular field camp, but will be considerably more intensive and will allow the students to go much further.

REU 奖项颁发给一系列地质研究项目，这些项目既适合本科生大三和大四学生的学习，对于加深对塔科尼褶皱/冲断带、坎布罗-奥陶纪地台以及纽约州东部和佛蒙特州西部阿迪朗达克地块的认识具有重要意义。 四名教师将指导十名学生参加为期 5 周的夏季实地项目，并可能在其他机构进行整个学期的跟进。 这种结构遵循高露洁常规野外训练营的模式，但会更加密集，并允许学生走得更远。
