"Did you think geography was just going to be learning all the capitals?
We do things differently here.
We hike through ancient glaciers.
We explore the geography of southern food.
We learn about local development, and then travel to Guatemala to put our knowledge to work.
We design and analyze maps about natural hazards.
We are relevant. We are award-winning.
We make a difference in our world.
