Astronomy department reaches for the stars with summer research

Although another year at Mount Holyoke has come to an end, academic life is still present on campus as summer research is now in full swing. Professors across the College, such as in the astronomy department, are beginning projects in their fields of study and have students assisting them for experience.

Jason Young, a visiting lecturer from the astronomy and physics department, has remained on campus since the end of the semester to conduct summer research.
