GeoBadgers Storm the Alamo at AAPG San Antonio


Thanks to a generous travel grant by Chevron, five GeoBadgers traveled to San Antonio for the 2008 AAPG National Meeting. Pictured below are Tim Pokrop, Tyler Krukas, Peter Garaffo, and Jen Walker as they attend the Wisconsin Alum Reception (Cassidy Miller, not pictured). In addition to networking with fellow GeoBadgers, students took in an array of technical talks and posters, submitted resumes to the Student Job Quest Forum, and partook of the excellent Mexican Food (can't get that in Madison!). All in all, it was an incredibly successful event. We'd like to sincerely acknowledge Chevron and the Department of Geology for facilitating this trip.
