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.
