Wormsloe Fellows Reports

Each year, the Wormsloe Foundation and the UGA Graduate School support three Master's and/or PhD students as Wormsloe Fellows.  These are hand-picked students from a variety of disciplines whose work is designed to contribute in a meaningful way to the mission of CREW.  Previous Wormsloe Fellows have worked on the environmental history, GIS, archaeology, and constructed wetland design, among other topics.
