Thank you very much for your interest in supporting the Geology and Earth Science programs at CSULB!
We strive to provide every opportunity to our students, but state funding is variable and unreliable, and tuition and operational costs continue to rise. Generous supporters like you help close the gap.
The pandemic has tossed a wrench in all aspects of the essential hands-on laboratory and field training. In spite of the lock-downs and restrictions, we have managed to safely keep our critical field and lab training going--especially that which is required for state professional licensing.
These efforts have come with all kinds of increased costs - like COVID testing, medical supplies, and paying for travel (where we cannot stuff 7-11 people into a SUV or van)! Donations this past year have gone entirely to those additional costs for field and lab classes.
These are challenging times for students and your gift can help them climb the mountain. If you would like to support our students, please click the Make a Gift button below:
Thank you for being such a great community and for your financial support.
