   personal_statement: Rosalind Helz is a Scientist Emeritus at the Frances Bascom
     Center. She received her undergraduate degree in Geology from Stanford University
     in 1965, and graduate degrees in Geochemistry and Mineralogy from Penn State
     University in 1968 (M.S.) and 1978 (Ph.D). Since joining the USGS in March 1968,
     she has devoted her career to studying the behavior of mafic magmas, specializing
     in the use of petrology and chemistry to elucidate differentiation processes
     in mafic magmatic systems. Ongoing work includes completion of reports on the
     long-term study of Kilauea Iki lava lake, Hawaii and completion of reports on
     studies of the basal sill swarm associated with the Stillwater Complex, Montana.
