Human Time, Geological Time: The Tour

The College Commons Signature Event

Multiple Locations

Free


Professors Anderson, Bottjer and Pinkus lead a bus trip to observe the range of time around us in Los Angeles.

Tying in with the seminar Human Time, Geological Time: Discrepancies and Adaptations, the USC College’s Lawford Anderson (Earth Sciences), David Bottjer (Earth Sciences) and Karen Pinkus (French and Italian, and Comparative Literature) climb aboard to study the subject firsthand. Making stops at Silverado Canyon in the Santa Ana Mountains, the Laguna Beach area, and Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, visiting fossils and oil pumps, they will discuss geological change, energy sources and land use along the way.

To RSVP, use the event code "CC1106".
