â€‹The Arthur Homes Geological Society is a departmental society for Earth Scientists at Durham University. The society is run for students, by students, and organises a number of events throughout the year. AHGS aims for undergraduates, post graduates, lecturers, staff, and alumni to integrate with one another, to further their university experiences. The society is named after, locally born, Arthur Holmes. Arthur Holmes became the first reader in geology at Durham University in 1924 and, throughout his career, earned himself the nickname of 'Father of modern geochronology'. Holmes performed the first accurate uranium-lead radiometric dating while he was an undergraduate in London. This led to the publication of his famous book, The Age of the Earth, in which he argues the case for using radioactive methods as a more precise dating technique, compared to more traditional methods. The Earth Sciences department building is named after him.
