In conjunction with its Annual Meeting and Exposition, The Geological Society of America is hosting a Public Forum entitled “CSI:  Forensic Geology Gets the Dirt on Crime.”  The program is free and open to the public!

Attendees will hear first-hand from the experts how scientific evidence is revolutionizing crime scene investigations. An audience Q&A will follow. Content will be appropriate for high school and middle school students.  Teachers who attend will receive a free copy of GSA’s soon-to-be-released educational CD–Rom from GSA’s “Explore Geoscience” series. The CD, written for geoscience teachers by geoscience teachers, contains information, activities, and images for classroom use on the subject of Forensic Geology.

Complete information, including speaker bios, can be found on the GSA Web site at http://www.geosociety.org/meetings/2007/publicForum.htm). Contact Christa Stratton (cstratton@geosociety.org) with questions.  This program is sponsored by Subaru of America, Inc.
