San Diego State University - Department of Geological Sciences

Spring 2000 Seminar Series

Welcome to the new seminar series in the Department of Geological Sciences!

This is the place to find a picture of each speaker, their career highlights, and an abstract of their talk.
In addition, you will soon be able to find flyers announcing each speaker posted around campus as well as at local environmental/engineering firms.
If you would like to receive one of these announcements, either by normal postal services or by e-mail, then please let us know.
As our seminar series evolves please let us know how we can make it better.
In fact, if you know of someone who you think we should invite, then feel free to e-mail or write us.

We hope to see you there!
