Curriculum Vitae  

 


Looking East from Grossmont College, view of monsoonal thunderstorms on August 16th, 2012

 

"The unity of all the sciences is found in geography. The significance of geography is that it presents the earth as the enduring home of the occupations of man. The world without its relationship to human activity is less than a world. Human industry and achievement, apart from their roots in the earth, are not even a sentiment, hardly a name"

John Dewey
(1859-1952)
