This
webpage explores the development and the work of an undergraduate
research program at Berea College which utilizes the community as
a resource for important and interesting research topics. The research
itself has examined topics such as estimating certain aspect of the

computer modeling. The evolution of our collaborative relationship
with regional environmental organizations is also detailed.
