SEG Annual Meeting
Houston, Texas
November 6-11, 2005

UT Jackson School of Geosciences will be at the SEG Meeting!

This year the Society of Exploration Geophysicists is celebrating its 75th anniversary and hosting the SEG International Exposition and Seventy-Fifth Annual Meeting in Houston, Texas, 6-11 November 2005 at the George R. Brown Convention Center. The Jackson School will be represented with an exhibit booth in Hall C, booth # 3158, and will host a luncheon for current staff, students and alumni. The lunch (see flyer) will be held at the Home Plate Bar and Grill Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2005 11:30-1:30 PM.
