Professor Jean-Pierre Bardet, a civil engineer who studies earthquakes, has just returned from a trip to China's Sichuan region to study the earthquake damage caused by a magnitude 8 temblor on May 12, 2008. He will present his observations at a public lecture and Powerpoint presentation open to the entire USC campus community. Professor Bardet was a member of an official U.S. delegation invited by the Chinese Earthquake Authority to survey the damage caused by this powerful earthquake.
