The Team

Friday Specimen Preparation Sessions

 

Our Collection Team is made up of students, faculty, and alumni who have a passion for the natural world and the study and preservation of natural history collections. Our work ranges from preparing, photographing or cataloging specimens to writing articles for the blog or presenting our research for local or national organizations.

If you are interested in working with us, or in arranging a tour of the collections, please contact Emily Smith, esmith@randolphcollege.edu .
