Serving students from the rural and urban areas of Washington State, Central Washington University is a regional university located near Seattle in a sparsely populated part of the state, east of the Cascade Mountain range. Recent and anticipated revitalization of the Geology Department at Central Washington University has generated a need for an enhanced geologic research facility that accommodates modern approaches to conducting scientific inquiry and that immerses students in the research experience. To achieve this goal, the NSF will assist the department by providing partial support for the modernization of Lind Hall, the facility that houses geological research activities. The 1947 structure is sound and the space currently devoted to the department is used to conduct geological research including: Petrology, Structure, Tectonics, Geographic information Systems, Stratigraphy, Neotectonics, U-Pb geochronology, and Glaciology. In addition to providing designated laboratory space for faculty and student researchers, the renovation project will provide new capabilities such as rock crushing and mineral separation capacity and appropriate storage areas for heavy liquids and high concentration acids. The project will further support departmental and institutional efforts in the development of the university's strategic plan of establishing a Master's Degree program to be offered by the Geology Department.*** | H H + (á▀áG À F G ( n H H + ( d ' ` ╔ -- aݪ ▀ ªá = ÓaOÀ h¢µ +'ª`0 ┐   S u m m a r y I n f o r m a t i o n ( áááááááááááá ' + áááááááááááá áááááááááááá áááááááááááá ' s - 3 ?

中央华盛顿大学是一所地区性大学，为华盛顿州农村和城市地区的学生提供服务，位于西雅图附近，位于该州人口稀少的地区，喀斯喀特山脉以东。中央华盛顿大学地质系最近和预期的复兴产生了对加强地质研究设施的需求，以适应进行科学探究的现代方法，并使学生沉浸在研究体验中。为了实现这一目标，美国国家科学基金会将协助该部门，为林德大厅的现代化提供部分支持，林德大厅是容纳地质研究活动的设施。1947年的结构是健全的，目前专门用于该系的空间用于进行地质研究，包括：岩石学，构造学，构造学，地理信息系统，地层学，新构造学，U-Pb地质年代学和冰川学。除了为教师和学生研究人员提供指定的实验室空间外，改造项目还将提供新的功能，如岩石破碎和矿物分离能力，以及适合储存重液体和高浓度酸的区域。该项目将进一步支持部门和机构的努力，以发展大学的战略计划，即建立由地质系提供的硕士学位课程。*** | H + H(▀aG) F (n H G H + ( d ' ` ╔ -- aYª▀ª = OaOA h¢µ+ 0┐ª   y S u m m r I f n o r m t I o n ( aaaaaaaaaaaa ' + aaaaaaaaaaaaáááááááááááá áááááááááááá ' s - 3 ？
