Resource Building at Cedar Point Biological Station

雪松点生物站提供野外生物学的研究机会和高级课程，特别强调草原生态学，昆虫-植物相互作用，动物行为和寄生虫学。雪松点位于北普拉特河谷，在这个位置，它的教师和学生可以很好地接触到各种生态系统和栖息地，包括内布拉斯加州沙丘。雪松点大学成立于1975年，建立了强大的教育计划和卓越的研究生产力记录。雪松点生物站获得了建造一座新资源大楼的资金，该大楼将包括一个新的图书馆、计算机实验室、教室和研讨室。这个空间的提供将使人们更好地接触到空间站的生物收藏品。它还将允许改善和扩大现有建筑的食堂和教学设施。该奖项提供的资源将大大增加雪松点生物站的能力，为教师、研究生和本科生提供多年的野外生物学研究和教育机会。

Cedar Point Biological Station provides research opportunities and advanced course work in field biology, with special emphasis on prairie ecology, insect-plant interactions, animal behavior and parasitology. Cedar Point is located in the North Platte River valley, in a location that gives its faculty and students excellent access to a variety of ecosystems and habitats including the Nebraska Sand Hills. Cedar Point was founded in 1975 and has established a strong educational program and an outstanding record of research productivity. Cedar Point Biological Station has been awarded funds to construct a new Resource Building, which will include space for a new library, computer lab, classroom and seminar room. Provision of this space will then allow better access to the biological collections of the station. It will also allow for improvement and expansion of the dining hall and teaching facilities in existing buildings. The resources provided by this award will allow for a substantial increase in the capacity of Cedar Point Biological Station to provide opportunities for research and education in field biology to faculty, graduate students and undergraduates for many years.
