These presentations (in Microsoft PowerPoint) are made available solely for the use of students in GE254: Principles of Geomorphology, at Colby College. These are the actual presentations made in class, sometimes augmented slightly to enhance the materials. However, nothing of substance will be added to materials once they have been presented in class without notifying the entire class that such a change has been made.
In order to view these, you will need to download them onto a computer capable of running Microsoft PowerPoint. Colby users not having this software may download it from the general server.
Basic lecture PowerPoints are saved in the old (ppt) format; virtually all student PowerPoint presentations are in the new (pptx) format. If anyone has trouble opening files in this new format, he/she should get in touch with me about arranging a conversion.
