The AEG Sacramento Chapter is hosting its annual Student Night meeting on Tuesday, April 20th. The meeting is a great opportunity for geology students to meet/interact with professional geologists in the environmental & engineering geology fields. We hope we can make the virtual setting as much of a success as possible this year in lieu of COVID-19 restrictions and greatly appreciate your attendance and active participation. Student and professional attendance is FREE! Please register with the link below to receive the Zoom link in the confirmatino email.
Students (both undergraduate and graduate) are encouraged to present posters highlighting your thesis research and/or classroom research for discussion/input in an informal setting. For students who are graduating soon, it is a great way to network with prospective employers. If you are planning on presenting a poster, please notify Matt Buche at mbuche@gfnet.com. The first 8 students who sign up and present posters will be awarded $50. Attendees of the meeting will vote on the best poster, and the winner will receive an additional $100!
