Finding Her Layer
Rachael Savoie ’21 is digging back 300 million years in search of answers. For this geology student, there may be no richer layer—or more exciting period—than the Carboniferous. And the Joggins Formation in Novia Scotia is one of the most important geologic features in the Northeast, so it’s just the place to study it all. Using cutting-edge technology in SUNY Potsdam geology labs, Savoie is analyzing the rich shale and limestone of Joggins to better understand the paleo-environments encased there, and how they formed.
A Universe of Sound
Raquel Acevedo Klein ’16 creates galaxies of music, still imagery, film and painted works, and lays the path for sensory journeys in which audiences are active travelers and explorers of worlds. Drawing from rich layers that include ancestral history set upon universal canvases, the long-time Brooklyn resident finds inspiration in her community and within a family of illustrators, filmmakers, and visual effects animators.
