Hello everyone! My name is Jeremy... I'm a rising junior, geography major, I love streams, carob-flavored things, finger lickin' raspberries, finger-pickin' guitar, and roaming Vassar campus on cool summer nights, watching the stars and fireflies and the sun set from the Earth Circle by the new observatory. The first picture is my and my mom at this awesome botanical garden type place overlooking the Hudson in the Bronx, and the second one is the Coxing Kill, a stream I spend a lot of time at for work this summer in the Mohonk Preserve near New Paltz. I'm staying on campus this summer doing URSI with Kirsten Menking, an Earth Science professor, who I love. we're researching lots of stuff about streams in Dutchess and Ulster counties.. so I often find myself in chest waders, waist deep in casperkill muck. yummmm! Vassar during the summer is really excellent for the most part- at first it is maddeningly quiet and slow, especially right after finals week ends, but soon you get used to it and begin enjoying the slower pace of life, the warmer weather, the extra time to just sit on the quad or go out for ice cream, and the BEAUTY of the campus over the summer. it's great.
Anyway I'm super excited to meet all of you and get to know you all better in september. Oh, and I'm living in 212.

much love,
Jeremy
