In this episode, Kelly and I meet with Brad Dearden, Associate Professor of Geography at UMF. If you think being a geography professor means you sit around drawing maps with colored pencils all day, you really need to listen to this to find out what they really do. Adventures in Nepal, Guatemala, China, and more. Geography professors are much closer to Indiana Jones than they have any right to be.
These podcasts started as a lark to talk about the library and have a fun time, but I’m learning so much about our faculty here at UMF and the research they’re all up to. I’m so glad we have a chance to highlight it, bit by bit.
