Department's Identity Change

As of April 22, 2010, Earth Day, the former department of Meteorology merged with the departments of Geology and Oceanography to form a new Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Science at Florida State. Meteorology will continue as a program within the new department, enhanced by even greater cooperation among the other program areas.
