(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Lorence Gene "Larry" Collins is an American petrologist, known for his opposition to creationist geological pseudo-science. Career Collins is a professor emeritus of geological sciences at California State University, Northridge. He studied geology at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where he earned a bachelor's degree in 1953, a master's degree in 1955, and a Ph.D. in 1959. He joined the faculty of San Fernando Valley State College, which later became CSU Northridge, in 1959.
