Yes. I have a geology degree. How else am I supposed to distinguish apatite from halite. I've licked many rocks. Mineralogy, petrology, and sedemenary Rocks and fossils all had finals that involved having 50 rocks in front of you to identify
Yeah geology is fun. Lots of hands on stuff, class camping trips out to the field usually once a semester at least. Then there's field camp which is a couple months in the wilderness mapping outcrops and studying local geology. I think it's one of the most fun majors you can do, but I'm biased.

Oh wow I've never expected that I'm used to university being full academia with no hands on on anything
Not hands. Tongue

Your fucking around about the licking part right?
Geologists identify rocks in the field that way sometimes.

Not at all.
Interesting! Makes geology sound more fun for some reason.
