Take a class this summer! PHS 115 Physical Geology (online) mycollege.sunybroome.edu/web/events/summer-2014 Physical Geology, online, is a great opportunity for students to fulfill a science requirement, an interest, or to take a course required for NYS Earth Science certification. Physical Geology is a four credit, laboratory infused, transfer course to most SUNY schools. If youre interested in current events and would like to know more about how the Earth directly impacts you and society, this course is for you. Besides mastering the rock and mineral part of Physical Geology, we learn about local flooding issues, landslides, earthquakes and volcanoes. This course includes many of the natural disasters you see displayed on the internet and media outlets. Although doing labs on your own may be a bit scary at first, the professor is willing to work with each student to ensure your success. Doing these labs will give you the confidence in your abilities to tackle many of the courses you may take and help make you an independent learner or worker in a future career. This course is not just about rocks and minerals but is designed to give you the qualities transfer schools and employers look for. I like teaching this course online, especially in the summer because we get a wider range of students, often very motivated students, who are willing to post pictures of their travels and experiences as they relate to this class. Taking a lab-based, four credit, transfer quality course can be scary. Some students have not been in a science class for many years and worry about their success. Since I have taught this course online for over 14 years, I know that some students need more help than others. I pride myself in responding to questions and pleas for help within 24 hours, even on weekends. Your success is my success. - from Professor Bruce Oldfield
