FY2019 GSA ANNUAL REPORT


          Bringing Members


          Together in


          Countless Ways




            GSA’s Geographic Sections have their own governance boards
          and organize scientific meetings in their regions of North America.
          These meetings attract many geoscience students and provide out-
          standing learning and networking opportunities closer to home.
          Sections offer travel grants to the GSA Annual Meeting as well as
          their own meetings. Many Sections also offer research grants.
