Show 15. Rocks and MineralsSight recognition of the important rock-forming and other minerals through class discussion and laboratory work, and the identification of the common rocks of the earth's crust by mineral content, association and occurrence. Field trips are required. Three lectures and one laboratory period a week. A (4). Buss 21. General GeologyThe earth, its rocks and minerals, its surface and subterranean features, their origin and causes as revealed in land features. Two field trips required. Four lectures and one laboratory period a week. A W S (5). Buss, Peterson 22. Historical GeologyThe history of the earth, from its theoretical origin to the present, as interpreted from the rocks and their fossil contents. North America, particularly Utah and the adjacent areas, is emphasized. Two required field trips provide a valuable supplement to class discussion. Credit will not be given for both Geology 22 and Geology 52. S (5). Buss, Peterson 51. Physical GeologySimilar to Geology 21 but with emphasis on geological features important in geology, engineering, and forestry practice. Designed for geology, engineering, and forestry majors. Credit is not given for Geology 51 and Geology 5 or 21. It is recommended that physics and chemistry be taken previously or concurrently. Field trips required. Four lectures and one laboratory period a week. W S (5). Buss, Peterson 52. Historical Geology for majors and advanced students. Prerequisites: Geology 21 or 51. S (5). Credit will not be given for both Geology 22 and Geology 52. Buss, Peterson 53.
