Schedule for teaching geology at the College of the Siskiyous and a sketch of the geology of northern California
Abstract
Scope of Study: A teaching schedule for a one-year course of study in physical and historical geology is outlined by topics showing the approximate amount of time which can. be spent to adequately cover each of the subjects, yet finish the course in the allowed time of two semesters. Following this is a brief description of the overall geology of the state of California; then, a detailed study of the geology of northern California in the vicinity of the college where the geology course is to be taught. This area of approximately 20,000 square miles is bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west, Oregon to the north, Nevada to the east, and includes parts of Del Norte, Humboldt, Trinity, Siskiyou, Shasta, Modoc and Lassen counties. Conclusions: The report will aid in the planning of effective field trips for students of geology at the College of the Siskiyous and others interested in the geology of northern California.
