New BA in Environmental Geology

      Well, we've finally decided to offer a separate BA degree in Environmental Geology. This has not yet been approved by the University, but if it is, our students will be able to choose between the traditional and environmental routes. Rich April and Bruce Selleck have spearheaded this effort and Rich comments on the new program in this newsletter. We all want you to know, however, that this degree is even more demanding than a traditional BA and is not a fluffy way through the geology concentration. We will comment in more detail in the next newsletter.
