SUMMARY:A Brief Review of The Formation and Evolution of Earth and Its Life
DESCRIPTION:Darwin Day Lecture and Exhibition \nOrigin of Species is one of the most influential books ever written.  In it\, Darwin gave us a scientific understanding of our origins to replace those based on ancient myths.  In commemoration of Darwin’s birthday\, Professor Katryn Wiese will review the main timeline and evidence for Earth’s formation and evolution\, including the evolution of life on Earth. Following this review\, she will lead a tour of the 4-story Science Hall exhibit\, The Story of Time and Life. \nWhen\, in 2003\, the California Academy of Sciences closed its doors to begin construction on their new facility\, the Earth Sciences Department at City College worked with Academy curators to save as much as possible of the remains of the Life Through Time exhibit. These saved and borrowed items included panels\, murals\, dinosaur fossils\, rock samples\, and scale models. Around these Academy-donated and -loaned items\, the Earth Sciences Department designed a 4-floor exhibit\, augmenting the materials to install a complete and permanent (and publicly available) exhibit on the Story of Time and Life — from the Big Bang to Humans.\nExhibit website: http://www.ccsf.edu/Departments/History_of_Time_and_Life/ \nKatryn is Professor of Geology & Oceanography\, Earth Sciences Department\, City College of San Francisco (www.ccsf.edu/earth) \nWHERE: City College of SF\, Ocean Campus\, Science Hall\, Room 34. 50 Phelan Ave. Convenient parking is available for $3; passes are sold from the machines in the lots. BART and Muni J Line stops nearby (Balboa Park station). More detailed directions and maps: http://www.ccsf.edu/en/educational-programs/school-and-departments/school-of-science-and-mathematics/earth-sciences/Map.html \nEveryone is welcome.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day at the ETSU Natural History Museum & Gray Fossil Site
DESCRIPTION:JOHNSON CITY – Darwin Day will be celebrated with free admission at the East Tennessee State University and General Shale Natural History Museum as a part of its annual Darwin Day observance on Saturday\, Feb. 7.\nDarwin Day includes several talks and a variety of activities for children.\nDarwin Day is an international celebration of science that occurs around Feb. 12\, which is the birthday of Charles Darwin\, who was born in in 1809.  The mission of Darwin Day is to recognize the scientific accomplishments of Darwin and his description of evolution through natural selection as well as to explain the far-reaching impact of evolutionary science.\n“As we at the Natural History Museum observe Darwin Day\, we are dedicated to providing the public with scientific information regarding evolution and other topics in a thought-provoking but informal setting\,” said Dr. Blaine Schubert\, museum director.\nThe schedule for Darwin Day includes: \n•	Noon – “Walking on Two Legs: How it Happened\,” presented by Dr. Bill Duncan\, ETSU Department of Sociology and Anthropology.\no	Dr. Duncan will discuss the origins of bipedalism\, or walking upright on two legs\, and how it might have evolved\, perhaps through tool use\, body temperature regulation\, or identification of predators.\n•	1:00 p.m. – “The Myth of the Missing Link\,” by Dr. Blaine Schubert\, museum director and ETSU Department of Geosciences.\no	Dr. Schubert will address ongoing questions on whether gaps in the fossil record indicate holes in Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution.  \nActivities for children will be held throughout the day\, including lessons on such topics as human evolution and why humans are primates\, how natural selection works\, and understanding geologic time evidence from fossil records.\nFor more information\, call the museum at (423) 439-3659\, email info@grayfossilsite.com\, or visit www.etsu.edu/naturalhistorymuseum.  For disability accommodations\, call the ETSU Office of Disability Services at (423) 439-8346.\n# # # \nTwitter: #ETSUFossil

SUMMARY:A Brief Review of the Formation and Evolution of Earth and Its Life:
DESCRIPTION:Darwin Day Lecture and Exhibition \nOrigin of Species is one of the most influential books ever written. In it\, Darwin gave us a scientific understanding of our origins to replace those based on ancient myths. In commemoration of Darwin’s birthday\, Professor Katryn Wiese will review the main timeline and evidence for Earth’s formation and evolution\, including the evolution of life on Earth. Following this review\, she will lead a tour of the 4-story Science Hall exhibit\, The Story of Time and Life. \nWhen\, in 2003\, the California Academy of Sciences closed its doors to begin construction on their new facility\, the Earth Sciences Department at City College worked with Academy curators to save as much as possible of the remains of the Life Through Time exhibit. These saved and borrowed items included panels\, murals\, dinosaur fossils\, rock samples\, and scale models. Around these Academy-donated and -loaned items\, the Earth Sciences Department designed a 4-floor exhibit\, augmenting the materials to install a complete and permanent (and publicly available) exhibit on the Story of Time and Life — from the Big Bang to Humans.\nExhibit website: http://www.ccsf.edu/Departments/History_of_Time_and_Life/ \nKatryn is Professor of Geology & Oceanography\, Earth Sciences Department\, City College of San Francisco (www.ccsf.edu/earth) \nWHERE: City College of SF\, Ocean Campus\, Science Hall\, Room 34. 50 Phelan Ave. Convenient parking is available for $3; passes are sold from the machines in the lots. BART and Muni J Line stops nearby (Balboa Park station). More detailed directions and maps: http://www.ccsf.edu/en/educational-programs/school-and-departments/school-of-science-and-mathematics/earth-sciences/Map.html \nEveryone is welcome.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day Scavenger Hunt for Families at The Smithsonian Natural Museum In Washington DC (Event on Saturday February 7th)
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our 2nd Annual Darwin themed scavenger hunt at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. Our event will begin with an Impromptu meet and greet\, then together we will make our very own Charles Darwin beard (simple fun craft) to wear throughout the museum…And then following instructions for our group Scavenger Hunt. Finally\, we will end with a celebratory desert in Darwin’s honor (cake and party favors included!) Imagine that! \nPlease wear your Camp Quest T-Shirt or funny Darwin T-shirt!  \nThis Darwin Day will be celebrated by the GLOBAL community as a toast to the common good of all humanity. We will all want to develop events to Celebrate Darwin\, Science and Humanity and come together as one human family in appreciation of verifiable knowledge that has been acquired solely through human curiosity and ingenuity. Scientific knowledge has been of great value to all of us. It is our hope that the Celebration of Science and Humanity will be so well established that DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR we will all want to continue to work to make February the 12th a International day to recognize Verifiable Scientific Knowledge and to appreciate the connection of Humankind to the acquisition of this knowledge. \n** Please note ** This is not a Smithsonian Sponsored event. This event is hosted by The Gilmore Family and Camp Quest Chesapeake (Campquest.org) Campers and Counselors. This is a free event and open to everyone! If you wish to join us\, please visit our Facebook page (Please like us for updates!) and message us for more information on location meet-up and instructions for Scavenger Hunt. Because the Museum is extremely busy on Saturdays\, it’s extremely important that we have a head count of everyone attending. We look forward to meeting new faces and seeing CQ friends again!

Where are we going? Why are we here?” Darwin gave us some answers for some of these questions. Join us to celebrate Darwin’s birthday. We’ll catch a glimpse of Darwin the scientist as well as Darwin the person. We’ll show how his life was informed by UU principles that\, of course\, hadn’t been formulated as such yet.
