At first we were nervous about such an inexpensive and user created platform such as OpenROV for performing oceanic research. Comparable systems cost 10 times the price, but are unfortunately out of the reach of our funds. The OpenROV 2.6 units had a lot of problems with the motors, and we had concerns with durability. The […]
Been working are this piece all day. It’s coming along great. Listening to Irvin Mayfield and working on my project is a great combination!!!
My experience in New Orleans went above and beyond my expectations had before the trip. As I sit here in the library on a Thursday night frantically working on unfinished work mini flashbacks pop into my head as if I was back in New Orleans. These flashback are of course with friends, friends that share […]
This trip was everything I expected it to be and much more then I could put into words. At first I was a little skeptical about how it would go and the mix of activities we had to get imursed into it all. But Dr. Anderson was unbelievable in the activities and content he provided. […]

Unfortunately it has been 4 days since I was last in NOLA and I will cherish every minute that I had there. From Jackson Square in the French quarter where you could walk […]
I cannot believe that I almost didn’t go to New Orleans!!! I was on the fence about joining the NOLA trip in my last semester before I graduate. I commute from Orange County and barely have enough time to fit everything in as it is let alone go on a two and a half week […]
