Faculty members Ken Coles, Katie Farnsworth, Steve Hovan,
Jon Lewis, Greg Mount, and Jonathan Warnock, along with a number of students, will travel to Washington, DC during finals week to present at the American
Geophysical Union fall 2018 meeting.
This meeting is the largest international conference in the geological sciences, with more than 28,000 attendees expected. It is a great opportunity for our students to get to not only attend, but present their own research at international meetings like
this.
There is also an IUP Geoscience alumni meetup scheduled for Thursday, December 13. See our Facebook page for event details.
