"Fossil fascination leads to prize
U. of C. senior wins Marshall Scholarship for study in England with
leaders in the field of paleontology"
By Jo Napolitano

"Stephen Brusatte sees more than just a large chunk of bumpy plastic as
he's running his narrow fingers over the cast of an ancient fossil."
"The worn, red and black likeness, a re-creation of a bone fragment
left behind by a giant meat eater with a name 19 letters long, is just
the type of tool he'll need to hold the interest of those who might
otherwise yawn at such a finding."
"Brusatte, 21-year-old senior at the University of Chicago, learned
this month that he won the prestigious British Marshall Scholarship,
which will allow him to study in England for two years."
