Guilford College Department of Geology and Earth Sciences

Frank Family
Science Center

The new Frank Family Science Center building (completed summer 2000) provides much more space for teaching, research, and student activities.  The rooms represented above are all on the second floor.  The department also has three facilities on the lower level of Frank - a Rock Storage area where we keep large and less-frequently used samples; a Rock Preparation laboratory, where we keep rock saws, lapidary equipment, hazardous materials, and other rock and laboratory equipment; and a Research Laboratory where we are hoping to house a new X-ray diffraction instrument for mineralogy and crystallography studies.

In our student study and meeting area, Geology students and visitors can relax, study, and try to win free cokes off Dave at foosball.  There's a big table to the left of this picture where people do homework and meet with professors - honest!
