Faculty and Students Attend Geology Conference

KU faculty and students attended the annual conference of the Pennsylvania Council of Professional Geologists Feb. 28. This is the society of licensed professional geologists in our region (including adjacent states). Kutztown University students accounted for 12 of 13 students at the meeting (most attendees are older, licensed PGs, so KU's involvement is seen by the professional community as truly exceptional). This photo excludes six current KU undergraduate geology students because they were off meeting with professionals and includes four KU geology alumni who are now important geologists in their companies.
