The NSF Ridge 2000 Distinguished Lecturer Series brings recent mid-ocean ridge research to colleges and universities, concentrating on those without existing ocean-science programs. The goal is to share Ridge 2000 research with audiences unfamiliar with this type of research, and to attract future students into ocean sciences programs. Lecturers deliver exciting presentations on mid-ocean ridge research to undergraduate and graduate-level audiences, as well as to general public audiences. Applications for host institutions for the 2008-2009 speakers are now being accepted. For more information about the series, including the application process, please visit http://www.ridge2000.org/dls/index.php. Applications will be accepted from all US colleges, universities, and informal science centers.
