Jeff Thole

I teach the laboratory sections of both of our introductory courses (GEOL 160 and 165) and have taught Mineralogy (GEOL 250) on a number of occasions. I came to Macalester after 5 years of doing hydrogeology with two different environmental consulting firms here in the Twin Cities.  Other duties include maintaining, running, and user instruction for the instrumentation housed in the Macalester Science Division’s Keck Laboratory (see our Department Resources page), supervising work study students, and maintaining the department rock and sample preparation equipment.
