Geology, I encountered one of the most fun field trips I've ever taken -- all within three or four blocks of my school, San Jose State University! For those unfamiliar with the location, SJSU is adjacent to downtown San Jose, where they cover buildings with veneers of what can only be described as a petrologist's dream. An hour's comfortable walk had those of us interested engaged in all sorts of geologic discussions about the rocks that made up those veneers, and the conditions that produced them.<br /><br />Well, that was half the class. The other half disappeared somewhere along the way. Sigh.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03079852628674185384noreply@blogger.com
