I'm so proud! Our @whitmancollege geology students rocked their posters at #GSA2022! Congratulations @MeganLynnD02, @CamerynGreenou1, Jackson, and Giacomo!
Yesterday, we were pleased to have the 2022 Farouk El-Baz award winner Ronald Amundson speak about his work on desert (and Martian!) soils and why deserts are so special. Congrats! #GSA2022
