"If you are curious about geology, this is a great intro course. You do have to put in some work but the course is very rewarding. It is so cool learning about geology and then being able to go on field trips during lab to see what we learned about in the real world. The final project, making a geologic map is not easy but really cool."

"I loved this course so much! Both Victor and Tekla are amazing teachers and create a great learning environment. They are very open to questions and genuinely want to make the class as easy to understand as possible. The class isn't easy but the professors make it very fun and engaging."
