Dr. Checo Col\u00f3n-Gaud<\/strong> on a field study on Sapelo Island, one of the islands that comprise Georgia’s coastal barrier. Together, Gordon and Dr. Col\u00f3n-Gaud monitored the decomposition of dead leaves in streams with varying salt levels and monitored changes. Gordon’s research presentation was derived from this experience.<\/p>\n“This research experience definitely helped me prepare as I was essentially conducting research that a master\u2019s student would be,” said Gordon, “However, the skills we learned are also provided in Oglethorpe\u2019s biology classes, such as literature review, statistics, figure design, experiment design, PowerPoint \u201celevator\u201d talks, and poster creation and presentation.”<\/p>\n
Gordon intends to pursue deep-sea marine biology, ecology and conservation. He intends to enroll in a master’s program after graduation and has already received several acceptances.<\/p>\n
