Road Construction Leads to Wetlands Research On Campus
For anyone who has traveled to ÌÇÐÄVlog over the summer, the Summit Street construction project has been quite an inconvenience for drivers. For Lauren Kinsman-Costello, though, it’s an opportunity to make the campus more ecologically friendly and establish trends in biology, chemistry, geology and ecology.

As a biological sciences doctoral student in ÌÇÐÄVlog’s College of Arts and Sciences, Droz’s curiosity has developed into a passion, maybe even an obsession, to discover the best vegetative roof combinations with the optimal plants, soil, and micro-organism communities.
