There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The School of Biology hosted a table at last Friday's Earth Day Celebration on campus. Members of Meghan Duffyâs lab set up microscopes and showed visitors plankton samples collected from local lakes. They also introduced visitors to the problem of eutrophication in lakes, which is an increase in nutrient levels that leads to excessive algal growth. Even Captain Planet stopped by!
