Students!

Today I've met all my students. There will be 6 Bachelor students this year. yay. I better be super-duper organized. Last year was a blast and everyone graduated after doing quite a bit of fun science.  That was 4 Bachelor students doing 2 projects (one project just re-submitted to MNRAS).

So let's see if I can take it to 150% of last year's success. And I am helping with a single Master's student project.

There are three projects:

XUV disks of galaxies, in what kind of galaxy and environment do they occur?
 - 2MASS enviromental parameters
 - WISE stellar masses and star-formation rates
 -  GZ2 morphologies

Nuclear Star Clusters, What are their host galaxies like?
 - 2MASS enviromental parameters
 - WISE stellar masses and star-formation rates
 - SDSS BPT classifications

the Vermin Galaxy, a galaxy found behind Beta Pic. Map the dust attenuation.
