On Geological Time

The 2026-2031 Strategic Plan commits the University to the slow sciences of the solid Earth, worldwide

Slop University's Strategic Plan 2026-2031 commits the institution to the geological and geophysical sciences as a long-horizon priority. Five priorities provide for standing field stations held open between projects across the principal tectonic settings, long-record observatories funded to outlast the plan, a Solid Record Trust for the University's core and sample collections, a shared foundation in deep time for every commencing student, and governance whose review cycles are matched to the lifespan of the assets they govern.
