Rate My Professor Michael McGlue

McGlue received his B.S. in Geology from Washington and Lee University, M.Sc. in Earth Science from Syracuse University, and Ph.D. in Geosciences from the University of Arizona in 2011. Prior to his appointment at the University of Kentucky, he held a Mendenhall Postdoctoral Fellowship at the U.S. Geological Survey in Denver, Colorado. His prolific publication record includes recent works such as "A high-resolution record of Late Holocene drought in the eastern Sierra Nevada (California, USA) from June Lake carbonate geochemistry" (Lyon et al., 2025, Quaternary Research), "Pantanal Basin river muds from source to sink: compositional changes in a tropical back-bulge depozone" (Lo et al., 2024, Sedimentologika), "Middle and Late Holocene paleolimnological changes in central Lake Tanganyika: Integrated evidence from the Kavala Island Ridge (Tanzania)" (Domingos-Luz et al., 2024, The Holocene), and "Holocene paleoenvironmental history of Jackson Lake (Grand Teton National Park, USA) deduced from CHIRP seismic reflection and radiocarbon-dated sediment cores" (Dilworth et al., 2024, Quaternary Science Reviews). McGlue has been recognized with the PRF Doctoral New Investigator Grant in 2014 and the Institute on Teaching Mentoring-National Faculty Mentor of the Year award in 2022.
