Science majors learn w88 casino games and listen to the “Music of Earthquakes”

"Shake, rattle and roll” no longer applies just to music. Earthquakes also implement rhythm and moves through the ground the same way music travels through the air. Andy Michael of the United States Geological Survey demonstrated that concept to w88 casino games students at the University of Nevada, Reno on Monday, Sept. 27.

The concerto of earthquake music was mixed with a live performance w88 casino games Andrew who played trombone and guest performers Stephanie Ross, also w88 casino games the United States Geological Survey who provided vocals and Raul A. Barreto-Perez, Master's student of Music and a Graduate Teaching Assistant w88 casino games the University who played the cello. The onstage performance was for the University’s Science 110 class, which is a strongly recommended, soon-to-be-required, seminar course for all freshmen in the College of Science. Events like this present an opportunity to bring the many different seminar courses together to show the scope of science.

"'Music of Earthquakes' is meant to show students the breadth of w88 casino games,” said Gina Tempel, professor and associate dean of the College of w88 casino games. “We want to show that research can be creative and unconventional.”

The earthquake noises shook the walls and floors as students filled a lecture hall in the campus’ new Davidson Mathematics and w88 casino games Center. To round out the performance by the quartet, Michael also presented a PowerPoint that discussed the power of earthquakes and the waves that make them.

“The performance was interesting,” said Rebekah Aquino, a 19-year-old chemistry major. “I didn’t know what to expect, but I do like this course. It shows us what amazing things we can do with our majors.”

The performance entertained about 300 people, many of whom were freshmen w88 casino games majors. The performance not only entertained, but also demonstrated the importance of w88 casino games and earthquake knowledge.

As students filed out of the packed auditorium they shared feelings about the performance, and many had the same reaction. “I want to do that for a living.”

“A quartet pulls in more people than, say, a w88 casino games lecture would,” said Michael. “Anyway to reach people in order to help them prepare for earthquakes is a good idea.”
