Right now, we're standing and the Bob
Campbell Geology Museum this building
houses Clemson University's collections
of rocks minerals and fossils. Bob and
(b-roll of fossils) 
Betsy Campbell, who this place is named
after, were big philanthropists in this
community. Bob was an avid collector of
rocks and minerals and fossils and
(Dr. Smith onscreen) 
supposedly he filled their house so full
of rocks and minerals and fossils that
his wife Betsy told him one day to just,
"Bob why don't you go build your own
Museum?" Bob built two museums.
He built this one and also what we refer
(photo of other museum)
to as the Bob and Betsy Campbell Museum
of Natural History which is over on core
campus.

There are both rocks, minerals and
fossils 
(b-roll of fossils and skulls)
from locations across South
Carolina, but also locations all across
the globe. In total the collection
includes about 12,000 individual
specimens. About 3,000 those specimens
are out here on display in the gallery
that we're standing in now, but the
lion's share of the collection is held
in our research collection.
 I have a
(Dr. Smith on screen)
small army of students and volunteers
that help me prepare fossils from the
rocks. The Fossil Prep Lab was
constructed behind a set of double doors
(video of Dr. Smith working in lab)
with windows, so that the public can
watch myself and my students and
volunteers when they're working in there.
Currently, we're working on what we
believe is a Hadrosaurian, or
duck-billed dinosaur, that's about 66
million years old.

You know, there isn't
anywhere else in this general area where
you can 
(b-roll of dinosaur fossils)
go see an actual dinosaur fossil
anyone who's interested in learning
(Dr. Smith on screen)
about earth history, learning about the
evolution of life on our planet, or just
(footage of fossils, minerals and rocks)
seeing fascinating and beautiful
examples of minerals and rocks should
visit the museum. 
(Dr. Smith on screen)
There's interesting
things to be learned about geology on a
world scale, as well as the geology of
South Carolina and, you know, the rocks
right underneath our feet.
