Ghost Volcanoes in the Cascades

[justingries]

Dude... CWU, whatever you paid this guy, it wasn't enough. What an amazing, engaging presentation on a topic that could have very easily been boring.

I live in the UK. I now know more about the geology of Washington State than anywhere else on Earth. I'm really enjoying this lecture series.

Nick is probably the most inspired and passionate Rock guy. Spent several years with my cousin here in Texas, and she is still an Environmental Geologist. She moved to Portland, Ore., earlier this year which was something she's been wanting to do since forever. Cascades are like a Geological Wonderland there She's in Rock Heaven up there

Stumbled across these lectures about a month ago and cannot stop watching! Mr. Zentner is such an entertaining and gifted teacher. I'm quickly becoming quite knowledgeable on the geology and geological history of the Pacific Northwest and I live in Alabama! Bravo! Hope to visit my cousin in Spokane soon.

I’ve lived almost 20 years in Washington (from France originally) and it’s only now through these lectures that I begin to understand our surroundings. Thanks to you professor Zentner! May you live a long life so we, the general public, get to enjoy your work and get a little smarter, a little more informed with each passing lecture.

I would seriously attend lectures like this for fun (in a world where we can gather again). It's kinda nice to learn without having to take notes or an exam. I especially would love to hear geology lectures on where I live, in Utah. We've some strange geology down here, and a decent fault line too.

These lectures don't concern my geographic location, yet; I still watch them.

We have blast columns here in Ireland too. Called the giants causeway

I was at Mt.St.Helens on May 18, 1980.I was at the Cle Elm ranger station when the call came in.I heard the call and the young man died.We worked our way clearing the park.When the main blast hit, we were 75 miles away.The only thing between death was the driver side window and door.I have never seen anything like that.

My hope is that your students realize just how fortunate they are to have a Professor of your magnitude.. Ae 9+

Thank you so much for these videoed lectures- I love them so much. I share my interest in volcanoes earthquakes etc with my mother. Unfortunately, she had a massive stroke last year that has left her paralysed an unable to speak, though her intellect has been  unaffected. I've been telling her about these lectures- I'm hoping I'll be able to take my lap top into the care home where she lives now, and play them for her. I knowshe'll enjoy them as much as I do!

I love this guy! Fantastic Professor! I have learned more about volcanoes in the past few hours than in 43 years of life. I would go back to school if he were my teacher!

56:50 the columns look like the ones at Giant's Causeway in Derry, N. Ireland. Fascinating lectures!!! Go raibh maith agat!

[jeastwood]

I've been watching these videos for a couple of months and have learned SOOO much! Fascinating! And YOU, Nick, make it so easy to comprehend and fun too...Thank-you so much... to you and all involved in making these videos and presenting them to us just for the sake of loving to teach those who love to learn...Bravo : )

Nick Sentner always delivers the clearest info and with an interesting personality! He is smart and funny and leaves me with further resources to pursue! I I love his science based stories and the great visual evidence he is sharing with us. I am a blackboard kind of student, and appreciate his visual hand built pictures.

I lived in Southern California when Mt. St. Helens exploded. Even that far away, we got ash... not any measurable amount, more the consistency of a bad case of dandruff. But I remember that, and being kind of amazed at how far the ash had traveled. Love the lectures. 😊

[lisavalentine]

Stumbled across this lecture series while watching Geographics... I love these! So interesting, I think after I retire I'll go back to school to study geology!

[TheHillbillyEngineer]

Thank you Professor Zentner, your style of teaching takes me back to my Jr. High and High School days. I had a couple of teachers that had a similar energy and style to yours, and for me those are the teachers who made the greatest impacts on my education. I consider you a Rock Star!!!

[ritamills]

@Nick Zentner Thanks so much for this wonderfully fascinating presentation. I feel like I've learned something significant this afternoon.

[koablack]

Thank you for these, I really enjoy your insights. Plus I was a teacher for 30- years and I enjoy your personality as a lecturer.
