A 14 July 1971 article in the Florida Flambeau describes students' part-time jobs and features two in Biological Science. Jack Neely, of Damascus, Virginia, "gets paid for skinning, sewing and stuffing specimens for collection purposes and use in ornithology courses. Neely's subjects include cranes, egrets, redbirds and sparrows as well as bats, squirrels, rats and mice." "I've hunted, trapped and fished all my life, so this ornithology lab job is a natural for me," says Neely. Also featured is Cynthia Brown of Boca Grande, who "works in the herbarium on campus, where she is 'sort of a girl Friday' as a research assistant to a doctoral student." "I love my job," she exclaims, "I'm learning to do a lot of different things such as mounting plants, examing pollen and running slide samples through an electron microscope."
