November 2019 Tide Bite
Greetings,
This month’s Tide Bite highlights the blending of art and science – two fields that might seem at odds, but not at FHL! We encourage these cross-disciplinary interactions, including Adam Summers’ work mentioned below and in previous events that combined poets, writers and marine scientists.
October 2019 Tide Bite
Greetings,
This month’s Tide Bite is written by one of our FHL success stories, a young woman who first came here as a post-bac to take a Fall course. She returned as a technician and diving student, got pulled into a fascination with eelgrass as a result of her research, and then applied to graduate school building on those experiences and was accepted at Cornell!

Greetings,
This month’s Tide Bites describes a lovely story of biological serendipity and the enormous value of our scholarship program. For over 100 years, students have been getting swept up in the passion of studying live marine organisms and their habitats while based at FHL.
