PROFESSOR OF GEOLOGY BAYLOR UNIVERSITY 1929-1934 Objectives of Geological Training at Baylor The training of a geologist in a university covers but a few years; his education continues throughout his active life. The purposes of train­ ing geologists at Baylor University are to provide a sound basis of understanding and to foster a truly geological point of view, both of which are essential for continued professional growth. The staff considers geology to be unique among sciences since it is primarily a field science. All geologic research in­ cluding that done in laboratories must be firmly supported by field observations. The student is encouraged to develop an inquiring ob­ jective attitude and to examine critically all geological concepts and principles. The development of a mature and professional attitude toward geology and geological research is a principal concern of the department. Frontis.

Randall A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of St. Cloud State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Cultural Resource Management, Archaeology May 6, 2020 Thesis Committee: Mark Muñiz, Chairperson Rob Mann Lauri Travis 2 Abstract The Sundog site (24LC2289) was first discovered in 2013 during a field school survey with Carroll College and the Helena-Lewis & Clark National Forest. This archaeological site is located at an elevation of 6,400ft above sea-level in the Northern Big Belt Mountains in Montana. The Sundog Site is a multi- component site with occupations from the Late Paleoindian period to the Late Prehistoric period. This site is significant due to its intact cultural deposits in a high-altitude park, in an elevational range that currently has a data gap.
