You may think you’ve been around a while because you remember when music television featured music. But there is a place on the UW-Madison campus where you can look at stuff from 300 million years ago, a time long before the heyday of the Thompson Twins.
That place is the UW-Madison Geology Museum in Weeks Hall, home of the department of geology and geophysics and a stone’s throw from Union South. On a hot summer day, the museum’s cool confines are a haven for fans of asteroids, dinosaurs and pink rocks.
