Whitney Sitzer (Wheaton College ‘15, photo 1)) and Kira Kasper (Wheaton College ’15, photo 2) are joining us on Leg 2 of the cruise.  They are graduates of my Marine Mammal Science and Biology of Whales classes at the Marine Studies Consortium.  Today they participated in their first marine mammal survey, although foggy conditions made it difficult to locate anything exciting (as of 12:45 pm).
