Kauffman 9531358 An REU-site based at the Yellowstone-Bighorn Research Association in Red Lodge Montana, will engage eight students each year in research on late Pliocene to early Pleistocene drainage patterns in the northern Bighorn Basin. The research will lead to publications and poster sessions by the participants at regional and/or national Geoscience meetings. Students will be recruited from Western Montana College (no more than half) and other regional colleges, with a strong emphasis on attracting Native Americans and women. Up to two of the students will be in-service, pre-college teachers. The PI will travel to area colleges to explain the program and recruit students, compensating for the lack of external communication and awareness of research opportunities at many schools with significant Native American populations. Contact will be maintained with students during the subsequent academic year through electronic and regular mail, phone interactions, and personal visits.

考夫曼9531358 位于蒙大拿州雷德洛治的黄石巨角研究协会的一个REU网站每年将吸引8名学生参与北方巨角盆地上新世晚期至更新世早期排水模式的研究。 这项研究将导致区域和/或国家地球科学会议与会者出版出版物和张贴海报。 学生将从西蒙大拿大学（不超过一半）和其他地区学院招募，重点是吸引美洲原住民和妇女。 最多两名学生将是在职的大学预科教师。 PI将前往地区大学解释该计划并招募学生，以弥补许多拥有大量美洲原住民人口的学校缺乏外部沟通和对研究机会的认识。 在接下来的学年中，将通过电子邮件和定期邮件，电话互动和个人访问与学生保持联系。
