Pioneers Students Dive In

Last week, the students preparing to interview Sylvia Earle got a taste of what it means to conduct field research, Dr. Earle style. After checking on the results of experiments they performed with Professors Nasreen Haque and Niloufar Haque CUNY’s City Tech, they headed to the pool for a scuba diving lesson with professional divers Bernie Chowdhury, Angelo Dragone and Robert Garcia. They learned about the physics and physiology of diving, and then geared up, and went deep. They were naturals!
