Field Camp 1974
Students
In 1974 the
Geological Sciences Major included options in Geophysics,
Geochemistry-Mineralogy-Petrology, and Geology. Geology and G-M-P
required Geol 470, Introduction to Field Geology, during the academic terms and summer
Geol 472, Field Geology. A pre-camp cross-country excursion was available
as Geol 471. Most of these names
are from the database of 1975 Geological Sciences alumni that, hopefully, is a proxy for
1974 field camp, although some may have attended a year earlier or a year later.
Some of these alumni, in addition, may have been geophysics option, so would not
have attended field camp. Thanks to Nicholas Susak and Mike Canich for additional names.
