Since our last Newsletter was published, the department has seen several personnel changes. On a sad note, we have lost Vince Ebert and Alan MacPherson. Their presence is missed but their legacy will not be lost. The department continues to thrive. Marion Werner joins the International Trade faculty from the University of Minnesota. She is taking over Alan’s courses. We will be continuing to offer the hazards course made popular by Vince over several decades of teaching at UB. As I write, we are admitting new majors, both undergraduates and graduates. This is the admission season! This past year, we experienced a signifi cant increase in the number of new international graduate students. Our faculty is now more international than ever with 12 members from different parts of the world, including fi ve Canadians! The Geography Department is still located in Wilkeson Quad. The location continues to be gorgeous whether it is summer, fall, winter or spring.
