On 18 May 1980, Mt. St. Helens, in southwestern Washington, did what such composite
volcanoes sometimes do. It blew out its top; and it sent ash into the prevailing westerlies, at
least as far east as the roof of Schroeder Hall, where Skip Nelson and others collected fallout in
small boxes. In October 2009, while attending the Geological Society of America meeting in
Portland, Oregon, Dr. Nelson took several students and graduates to see Mt. St. Helens. From
left, in front row, were Dr. Nelson, Erin Roche, Ben Maas, David Hahn, Jerek Trela, Stefanie
Pipis, and Eric Avalos. Standing, from left, were Ben Brooker, Jonathan Love, Jodi Lau, Randi
Liescheidt, Brianne Jacoby, Nicole Fox, Kelsey Kidd, Simone Runyon, and Matt Downen. That is
the mountain in the background.
