The purpose of LEO is to create a more inclusive and educated community within the JSG by sharing and listening to each other’s stories. Speakers will interview each other and talk about why they are involved in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts and the heart behind their work. By learning more about why individuals are involved in DEI, we will broaden our understanding of the impacts the JSG is making on students, faculty, staff, and greater society. Taking initiative to get to know each other, ask questions, and Listen to Each Other is a skill that will propel us further to be leaders in the geosciences.

With more than 355,000 hazardous waste sites and 550,000 abandoned mines in the U.S., it is not uncommon to find residential areas located next to them. Discover how Dr. Monica Ramirez-Andreotta engaged affected communities using community gardens and citizen science. Community members investigated and evaluated the contaminants in their areas while cultivating community gardens to improve the environmental health of their neighborhoods.

Master\'s Thesis PresentationsApril, 17 2026Time: 2:00 PM - 6:00 PMLocation: JGB The Master of Science (MS) degree at the Jackson School of Geosciences is considered to be the professional degree for a career in the Geosciences. This degree is the foundation for students pursuing employment in the petroleum industry, environmental and hydrogeological fields, state and federal government agencies, and other related geoscience fields. Some students also use the MS degree as preparation for pursuing a Ph.D. The Energy & Earth Resources Interdisciplinary program provides the opportunity for students to prepare themselves in management, finance, economics, law and policy leading to analytical and leadership positions in resource-related fields. The private sector and government organizations face a growing need for professionals that can plan, evaluate, and manage complex resource projects, commonly international in scope, which often include partners with a variety of professional backgrounds. As requirements for these degrees, students must present a professional talk on Master’s Thesis Presentations. |

From nimble monkeys to powerful apes, primates walk, climb, leap, and scramble in different ways. And humans? We are the odd ones out, but Dr. Shapiro reveals how comparing living primates, studying fossils and using cutting-edge biomechanical analysis can help us understand the deep evolutionary origins of our own unique form of walking. |
