Show Natural Sciences Geology and Geography DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND GEOGRAPHY Deon C. Greer, Chairman Professors, Sidney R. Ash, Deon C. Greer, Richard W. Moyle, Don R. Murphy, E. Fred Pashley, Jr.; Associate Professors, Thomas R. Neff, Wayne Wahlquist; Assistant Professor, Robert S. Waite. The Department of Geology and Geography provides an opportunity for the student to acquire an appreciation of his natural environment through lectures, films, laboratory studies and field trips. Three other important functions are also served: (1) Students are made aware of such world problems as conservation and the reciprocal relationship of man and his environment, (2) Provides fundamental training for a professional career in geography, geology, or planning, and (3) Provides the necessary skills for teaching the Earth Sciences and Geography on the secondary level.
