Description:The Ohio State University has fostered a program of Lake Erie research and education for 87 years. In 1895, the University opened a Lake Laboratory in Sandusky, Ohio. To accommodate a growing interest in aquatic sciences, the program was moved to Put-in-Bay, Ohio where the Franz Theodore Stone Laboratory was dedicated on Gibraltar Island in 1929. With the goal of expanding research opportunities, the Center for Lake Erie Area Research (CLEAR) was created in 1970 with facilities at Stone Laboratory and on the Columbus Campus. As a member of a national network, the Ohio Sea Grant Program was established in 1977 within the university to support instruction, research and advisory services directed toward the wise utilization of Great Lakes and marine resources. Today, all three components (Stone Laboratory, CLEAR and Sea Grant) are administered by the Center for Lake Erie Area Research as the Lake Erie Programs within the College of Biological Sciences.
