Hello! I would second sci.bio.marine! I'm very interested in MArine Biology, but often skip reading sci.bio, because of the mass of other biological topics spoken about, in there. How about an official CALL FOR DISCUSSION? Mike -- ! Mike Hoffmann ! It's difficult ! UUCP: ! ! Fasangartenstr.102 ! to soar with Eagles ! ...!unido!altger!mike ! !

Are you sure you want sci.bio.marine, and not the more general sci.bio.aquatic ? I was thinking of other freshwater bodies of water which contain equally interesting life forms. >How about an official CALL FOR DISCUSSION? It's probably appriate to discuss it in these three groups, reach a consensus, then post a call for discussion in news.groups.

Well, Richard, you should read Mike's posting before replying to it, and then you might have the answer. He says "I'm very interested in MArine Biology". And he goes on to say that he doesn't read sci.bio because there's too much other stuff there... If we create another group that seems at all appropriate for discussions of Crypts, Killies, etc., you will be doing crossposts to four groups, rather than three. What's the point? I third the call for sci.bio.marine ------ (I just enrolled in a course titled "Biological Oceanography".

I am looking for some colleges and universities which offer an undergrad
degree in marine biology. A young friend of mine is interested in pursuing
a degree in that area. She is looking for a school in the northeast, if
possible. Near the water would be fine, but will consider inland
school which has access to marine science station. She is a sharp, lively,
Christian young woman, 20, plays guitar, is six foot tall and plays
basketball. She is the daughter of a single mother and will need aid.
But will be a definite asset to any school that gets her. If anyone has
any suggestions, I'd be most appreciative. Post if you like or memail to
me at :
faccipop@lafcol.uucp
or:
faccipop@lafayett.bitnet
or:
pfac@lafayacs.bitnet
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

A young friend of mine is interested in pursuing I know its not in the Northeast but... Check out the University of South Carolina. They have an excellent Marine Science Program. The address is: Marine Science Program University of South Carolina Columbia, SC 29208 Columbia is near the center of the state about 1.5 hours from the coast at its nearest (that is Charleston). The University runs the Belle Baruch Institute for Marine Science and Coastal Research (I think I got that right) which is a research organization with a very impressive field station near Georgetown, SC.
