I'm lecturing on clay mineralogy tomorrow in my Soils course which means today my panniers are loaded with the goods! #Agron205 #Oreo #Soil #CommuteByBike

Today in #AGRON205 - Soils we are going to talk about Vikings getting high on shrooms* during their pillaging.

*Henbane was the more likely intoxicant, but it's a fun story for the first soil micro lecture of the semester. #Soil #SoilScience #Mushrooms

PSA for those traveling to the National Collegiate Soil Judging Contest, here's the Soil Songs playlist my #AGRON205 students and I have developed over the years. There's 436 soil-related songs & 6+ hours of playtime. #Soil #SoilScience #SoilJudging #NowListening music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Today's the first lecture of the spring semester for the #AGRON205 Soils lecture. That means breaking out soil songs at the start of each lecture again! Here's the first one of the term. music.youtube.com/watch?v=WKNt...

Today's #Agron205 Soils lecture was a fun one. The students learned about the Vikings getting high on Amanita muscaria mushrooms (most likely henbane tho) before pillaging. Then they watched this video about how Santa presumably originated from a shaman on shrooms. youtu.be/MrLb2-wETAQ?...

I played "Dig" by Incubus from the Soil Songs playlist this morning as #Agron205 students were shuffling in, and I learned they're too young to have ever heard of Incubus. Sigh... music.youtube.com/watch?v=RhvV...
