The Blue Ridge Mountains are among the oldest mountains on planet Earth, with a fascinating story to tell. In the Salem Museum’s first Speaker Series talk of 2024, Dr. Jonathan Tso will describe the geologic processes that shaped the landscape we see and enjoy today. His talk will be given on Thursday, Jan. 11 at 7 p.m. on Zoom.
Dr. Tso is the Geology Department chair and an Associate Professor at Radford University. His research interests include Appalachian geology, especially the geology of the Blue Ridge. He holds an M.S. and Ph.D. from Virginia Tech.
The Salem Museum’s Thursday evening Speaker Series programs will be held on Zoom in January, February and March to avoid any inclement winter weather. Zoom links will be posted on the Salem Museum’s website, SalemMuseum.org, on the morning of the event. Programs will return to in-person in Spring.
