The department's 3-D model of parts of the Colorado Plateau, including the Grand Canyon and southern Utah, found its new home in the Natural History Building, after about 4 years in storage.  In this photo, Profs. Willy Guenthner and Lijun Liu marvel at the features shown in the plaster model.  We are not sure when this piece was created, but it could be more than a hundred years old.  If you have any information about it (we think some then-students helped restore it in 1968), please contact us.
