Teaching at BGDL Joellen L. Russell Teaching, guiding and mentoring young scientists is as important as doing top-level research and I am committed to both. I have taken every opportunity to teach since my undergraduate days at Harvard where I was a Teaching Fellow for Prof. Jim Butler in Marine Chemistry. I have also taught a four credit laboratory course on climate change to non-science majors at Stone Child Community College on the Rocky Boy Reservation in Montana. My experience growing up in rural communities in Alaska and Montana and as a woman working in the physical sciences has given me an appreciation for the importance of good teachers during one's academic development. I look forward to facilitating the development of young scientists, particularly from rural or minority communities.
