What Do Geography Students Say?
"My studies in geography have allowed me to learn about the complexity of sustainability and climate change and the importance of community engagement and accountability to solve these complex issues. I have become a much better critical thinker and have learned to analyze where academic ideas come from and the various biases and assumptions that can lie within them."
Bradley Sarandi, BA Geography Major, 2020 Warren Gill Memorial Award Recipient
