What an awesome rock garden! So much old history with the rocks and now merged with todays technology! Watching your channel Nick, I never just look at a rock without giving it more thought. Thank you!
This is so cute, It's nice to see this campus in use. I am 85 years old and still working in New York television and know absolutely nobody ready to go to college or interested in geology, but this looks appealing if I did.
I thought this would be a little dull, but this was very enlightening. The people were very real and not like sometimes when its so scripted. Thanks for the stroll and thanks to you friends!! Great stuff!
What wonderful work by so many. I may be stuck in my chair but in my younger days I have been to the places or near them that were mentioned in the video. I am going to enjoy visiting them again by using my computer. I find with your hiking videos I begin to remember the smells of being in the forest I love so much. It does me so much good. Also, I am loving seeing the changes to the little backwater college I spent so many years at. It thrills me to see that it has become a real substantial university. I was an undergrad there when the name was changed from CWSC to CWU. We laughed and thought it was a joke. Now I am proud of what it has become and will be in the future.
Stunning these rocks are gorgeous! 😍 Very interesting kudos to Rex and the young lady grad student! Thank you Nick! I do so appreciate your approach to every video as you give a lot of detail that it feels you are seeing things for the first time as many viewers are. It’s very unique and makes for a richer experience.
I did a screenshot of the QR code. It allowed me to pull up the website. Awesome video when you'll allow us folks from other states to easily access the website. Fantastic video!
Asked about all those rocks scattered about campus in a previous vid and wha-la Nick does make a fine video about them! Another one about the new rock garden. Much easier to view that Discovery Rock Garden page mention on a 32" PC monitor! Darn great interviews professor. Love the backstories.
I discovered your channel recently and I’m enjoying binge watching. I went to the interactive website for the rock garden- excellent! I’m learning a lot!
the ice has melted, beneath the oaks. the bare, soft ground, time to dig. sorting the family woodpiles, found the site where mom dumped the rocks from our trips west. ye ha. the hunks from your area, alive view helps.
It's cool to know the intention and people behind the rocks that I had noticed, plus the educational aspect. Keeping it in front of the public I hope makes Geology more mainstream. It's always great to be "with" you, Nick. Fun stuff. 🤩❣️
I always pay attention when I watch your video's Nick. You're a great teacher. I think the rock garden should incorporate a native Gold ore monumental somehow, Wa. is a high ranked State.
"Nice rocks", how did they get here and there. Long story short some very smart young people, got them there, arranged, and labeled them with modern technology, and good old fashion hard work. For us to see and say, "nice rocks". Thank you, ALL stay safe "O" and a place for Nick to eat lunch, that he got a Vinman's Bakery, got to love it!
Thanks for doing this! My son attends CWU (music), so I’ve been on campus many times but I haven’t seen the rock garden. I’ll take a tour next time. Plus, I also graduated from the State University of New York (Syracuse)!
Those are some great stories about these rocks and what a wonderful idea to put extra information online for everyone to explore! Guess what website I will be visiting soon? 😉
My family used to have a Monument business several years ago where I worked. Every time I look at different rocks or stones, even to this day, I'm always trying to figure out how they would look rough, sawn, or polished so we can make statues, signs, countertops, or monuments. How would this look if I cut letters in the stone? If I was young and going back to college I would look into Geology as a major because I'm fascinated with stones and how they are formed and what they can be used for.
What a great display for the surrounds of the Geology Building entertainingly presented by a former student who acquired the rock in the first place.

FYI: Rex Flake appeared on CWU’s channel, found under the Central Rocks playlist, interview by Nick recorded back in 2006.

Just did a little bit of playing with the online rock garden map. Definitely will be back for more.

Very interesting tour
Forsynthia bushes are wonderful

Awesome video when you'll allow us folks from other states to easily access the website.
Fantastic video!
Good ideas! More fun ways to attract students to the department! 😉
Former student... '74, '75, '76.
This is great! Having fun exploring CWU, and learning more. Very helpful in understanding the rocks you describe in your lectures. Thank you.
Asked about all those rocks scattered about campus in a previous vid and wha-la Nick does make a fine video about
them! Another one about the new rock garden. Much easier to view that Discovery Rock Garden page mention on a
32" PC monitor! Darn great interviews professor. Love the backstories.
I thought that this would be about the plants in the rock garden but it was about the rocks! It was pretty cool and I learned something.

Fabulous tour. I’ll have to visit to see it first hand. Thanks Nick.
Thank you Professor Zentner
Thank-You so much for this video. My Grandson loves rocks! He is going to love this Rock Garden 😊
Wonderful nick!!!! awww.. wish I COULD CATCH you live, again...this was fun!
That QR code actually works from the video, no need for typing :-)
Good morning Big gathering of students today😳 That Ingles gem was cool Thank you for sharing this interviews🤗👍
the ice has melted, beneath the oaks. the bare, soft ground, time to dig. sorting the family woodpiles, found the site where mom dumped the rocks from our trips west. ye ha. the hunks from your area, alive view helps.
I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The campus looks great. I'm looking forward to visiting the website to learn the details.
Nick do you need a chunk of Baraboo quartzite for the rock garden I bet we could get it out to you
CWU better get ready for the increase in geology majors in the coming years. Nick you’re on to something here.😎
This is an awesome idea! Would be very fun to see. Thanks Nick and those who set up this project! Fun!!

Cool. Looking at the website now.
Thanks for the QR code nick, I can scan it from Austrlia. It is very interesting.
Some gneiss rocks y'all got there! lol Thanks for giving a close up of that QR code. Now we can take a virtual tour with you!
That is really fascinating Nick. Thank you for finding such great people to tell the stories of the boulders around CWU. I look forward to exploring.
Very nice Campus.
I like Rex, good dude!
Thanks for the tour ;)
What a great rock garden. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Loved it, great presentations folks, rocking Nick!
Nice!
Was gonna say the same!
What a great campus!
Beautiful campus!! Definitely a bucket list item when I make my way to visit a friend in Yakima!! Thanks Nick.
Thanks for doing this! My son attends CWU (music), so I’ve been on campus many times but I haven’t seen the rock garden. I’ll take a tour next time. Plus, I also graduated from the State University of New York (Syracuse)!
Very interesting and informative. Enjoyed it immensely.

That was a lot of work! I look forward to visiting the site. Limestone is a bit boring and Florida has tons of it.
With fossils and caves, it is interesting.
Your campus is so beautiful.
I want to learn about that polished Gneiss bench, I hope it gets described soon.
Great people!
Cool. I was able to scan the QR code on the computer screen and access the web page. I'm hoping to check it out in person at the end of July.
Yep, me as well

QR codes work over UA-cam.
lots of field trip ideas rocks need id;s
Who gets to keep the rocks clean???😺🤣🙃.
I hope they keep GLONASS working for you during the conflict in europe.
Nick come back as teacher.
