Message From the Chair

Greetings G-Hawks!

Welcome to the alumni page of the University of Kansas Department of Geology website. It is great to have you here. As you explore this site, you will find some interesting content on the history of the Department of Geology, and what is currently happening in the Department. Eventually, we will have all of the G-Hawkers available online as well as the department newsletter, The KU Geologic Record. I also invite you to explore STAMP, the program in which alumni can help mentor current students in the program.

We hope that you will register your email address with us so we can keep you apprised of upcoming KU Geology alumni activities in your area and late breaking news from the Department. If you register, we promise that we will keep your email address confidential and will only send you messages a few times a year. Also on this site, look for opportunities to ride along on some of our field trips, and opportunities to help the Department and its students by making a donation. Thanks for visiting! We hope that this site helps us keep in touch with one another, and helps you keep in touch with other alumni.

Rock Chalk!

Luis González
