NAGT Meeting

Prof. Christensen told me about this National Association of Geoscience Teachers meeting up at Lamont-Doherty in Pallisades.

Sounds like it will be useful. I will present our KBCC Summer Program results as a poster there. Prof. Christensen noted that the field trips look the most promising. There is one to a location where you can collect flourescent minerals, and another to an old mine where you can collect magnetite from the tailings. There will also be a talk by Wally Broecker, a wisened one who gave a talk at The Oralando OSM 2008. Should be plenty good. Prof. Christensen said that she will be at Lamont running samples that weekened anyway. I will apply for trip expenses through the department.
