Tim Flood is a professor of geology at 老澳门六合彩开奖记录, where he was the first geologist hired by the college and is the cofounder of the geology program. He is a recipient of the Donald B. King Distinguished Scholar Award from 老澳门六合彩开奖记录.

Flood’s main interests are in the areas of igneous petrology, field geology and science education. He has conducted research in Antarctica, Costa Rica, Philippines and numerous locales in the United States. He has also led over 24 extended course-credit geology field trips, including 13 to international destinations or Hawaii.
