Ph.D student and biologist Daniel Schwab and his younger sister Elizabeth were studying a branch of the Jordan River on July 30 near Ballantine Hall. "During the summer I taught this really great course as part of the foundations of science and mathematics," Daniel Said. "It's about a two week course where we take the kids out to learn about cell biology, genetics, ecology and evolution behavior. One of their labs was actually looking at these two branches of the Jordan River and we sampled for diversity." Daniel is helping his sister with a class project, Daniel said. "My sister is actually visiting me. She's going into 11th grade now and has a class project. She has to do pretty much what I taught in my class where we go out, ask some sort of an ecological question, make some sort of contrasts, and analyze the data, graph it, that sort of thing." Daniel has been in Bloomington for just over two years and has enjoyed visiting Griffy Lake, he said. In the summer I enjoy the abundance of natural resources. We have a lot of great places to go kayaking. I'm an outdoorsy person so it's nice we have all the trails to go hiking. There are a lot of nice places for recreation."
