Students to Escape Smells; Goin' Fishin'
About a dozen students enrolled in Zoology 105 will leave the smell of formaldehyde behind them and enjoy the Atlantic Ocean breezes in a four-day field trip next January.
The students, led by William H. Coil, assistant professor of zoology, will be participating in a field study of marine invertebrates off the North Carolina coast. Jan. 6-9.
For three days they will study aboard Duke University's oceanographic ship, the R/V EASTWARD, with their final day scheduled for study in Duke's oceanographic laboratory in Beaufort, N.C., Prof. Coil said.
PROF. COIL will direct the students to supply themselves with dramamine, a medication to prevent sea sickness, because the ship does "not have adequate facilities to carry seasick students."
The group will leave KU on Jan. 5, and return on Jan. 10, Prof. Coil said.
All expenses for the field trip will come from the National Science Foundation, with funds being administered by Duke University, he said.
WHILE ON BOARD the R/V EASTWARD, the KU students will study samples of marine life taken from the ocean at shallow levels, and at the 1,000 fathoms (6,000 feet) mark. Prof. Coil explained.
Dedicated only last Saturday, the R/V EASTWARD is the first ocean-going vessel built expressly for oceanography. The voyage will run southeast of Cape Hatteras, Prof. Coil explained.
PROF. COIL termed the vessel a "marvelous sea going laboratory." It has a crew of 15 and can carry a scientific staff of 15.The ship's deep reels carry 27,000 feet of cable for deep-sea specimen gathering.
