Besides this, the trips that the department takes the classes on are phenomenal. So far I have been to Virginia and this summer I may be going to New England. I had no idea what I wanted to major in. I knew I had found the right major for me. You get to learn and be outdoors at the same time.
Classes are small and students get lots of individual help from professors.
The professors are also very personable and friendly. The department, along with the Geo Society, offers lots of trips outside the classroom for anyone with an interest in geology. I haven't been disapointed. The professors are always around and available. The Geology Club has a lot of activities.
