GIS and Geography at Dartmouth
Alumni magazine Dartmouth Life has an article about geography and GIS at Dartmouth College, which “remains the only college in the Ivy League with a distinct geography department.”

I was a 1986 Dartmouth geography major, and LOVED the program. There was a deep understanding of all sides of the topic, including physical geography, human geography, economic geography, and methods (remote sensing, statistics, cartography — this was long before GIS). My strongest memory: “Geography is the study of place, or space, in the same sense that history is the study of time.” Professors Bob Huke and Vince Malmstrom. I have posted a link to their full article on my home page.
Thanks for the nice post.
