4 courses with the subject GLG, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
GLG 101Physical Geology4
A study of the physical and structural features of the earth and of the physical, chemical, and biological processes that produced them. Some of the topics included are: the work of running water, wind, and glaciers; the formation and deformation of rock beds; the nature of rocks, minerals, earthquakes, and volcanoes; the interior and the origin of earth. Field trips to local points of geological interest and laboratory work with topographic maps and mineral and rock specimens constitute a part of the work. Three hours of lecture and recitation, one two-hour laboratory or field period each week. (Offered when interest is expressed and departmental resources permit.)
A study of the physical and structural features of earth, the physical, chemical, and biological processes that produced them, and earth’s oceans. The possible topics are: the work of running water, wind, and glaciers; the formation and deformation of rock beds; the nature of rocks, mineral, earthquakes, and volcanoes; the interior and the origin of earth; nature of waves and currents; properties of sea water; origin and development of submarine sedimentation; life and resources of the sea. Field trips to local points of geological interest and laboratory work with topographic maps and 2023-2024
An introduction to weather and climate; atmospheric composition and circulation; climatic patterns and factors including their distribution; character and causes of climatic change. Heavenly bodies such as the sun, planets, and stars will be studied, and their effects on the earth. Three hours of lecture and one two-hour laboratory period each week. High school chemistry is suggested. Fall
A lecture course that provides a general overview of hydrogeology and investigates the occurrence, distribution, movement, chemistry, and environmental effects of groundwater in a geologic framework. The course presents the basic principles, methods, and applications of the disciplines and prepares students to address simple groundwater problems. Prerequisite: GLG 101. (Spring of odd numbered years) GLG 195, 295, 395, 495. Special Topics 3 credits HEALTH AND EXERCISE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY, ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE, AND HEALTH SCIENCE CHRISTOPHER A.
