The Geologic Carbon Sequestration seminar will be running through Fall term and students are encouraged to sign up for CHE506 (CRN 10458) to receive credit for attending. To receive the 1 credit, students are required to read an article by the speaker (I will provide a list to choose from) and hand in a written 1-page summary to me prior to the particular presentation, for at least 3 of the speakers. Undergraduates are also very much encouraged to attend. Seminars are held Thursdays at 3 PM in Owen 106 (notice we only have 5-7 speakers for the term).
