Dear Ocean,
In oceanography class yesterday, we breezed through a couple lectures because there were maybe 7 of us who showed up to class. Tennis match this, sick day that, beach party, what/? Anyways, we shifted gears from talking about tides to talking about "life in the ocean," and Dr. Trefry clarified the difference between Biological Oceanographers and Marine Biologists. He also directed a question like this at me,
Coolest Prof. ever: "Whitney- you're a Bio Ocean major, right?"
Lamest student ever: "er- um, no.. I haven't, uh, really..."
Coolest Prof. ever?: "OH. You're undecided. Okay. Aaron, you've got your life figured out, right?"
But anyways, in case you're curious, or you have nothing else to read today,
Marine Biology: scientific study of the organisms that live in marine environments Oceanography: scientific study of abundance and distribution of organisms and how they interact with their surrounding ocean environment
Love from someone who has to make 3 posters about quiet hours as result of her disciplinary conference,
Whitney!
