Welcome to This Old Earth, a website dedicated to the teaching of geology and evolution at S

uffolk County Community College.

Over the past few years it has been my desire to be able to provide the students of SCC with a website that will not only serve as an information hub for my classes but would encourage students to excel by demonstrating the real-world relevance of the topics discussed in my classes. Each year I think I get a little closer to this goal.

By the addition of the Science RSS feed I hope students, and anyone else who happens upon this site, will see that science is not something talked about for 3 hours a week. It is an ongoing ever-evolving discussion that we can all contribute to.

With that said, from this site you have access to all course related documents and information including: class syllabus, tentative course calendar, handouts, and even my lecture notes (in both Word and PowerPoint). To begin just select your course from the menu at the top of the page.
