Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The study discusses ways in which different people at different times viewed wetland environments, appraised their potential value, contrived to transform them by draining and farming or protect them as wildlife refuges and places for outdoor recreation. It traces changes in peoples’ perceptions, critically examining literary evidence for changing attitudes towards wetlands in seven Midwest states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Views of places described by travellers, landowners, journalists and writers of fiction are compared with reports by federal and state officials, maps and statistical data. Changing scientific descriptions and classifications of the physical characteristics of wet prairies, swamps and bogs are reviewed. Important changes in the outlook of Indians followed their contact with Europeans.

  • The Cultural Geography Reader
    9780415418737_1_pre.qxd 28/1/08 3:36 PM Page i THE CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY READER There has been a rising interest in cultural geography as an academic discipline, with the so-called “cultural turn” in geography and social science more generally. To date, there has been no generally accessible, transatlantic overview that balances classic and contemporary writings in cultural geography and related fields. The Cultural Geography Reader draws together fifty-two classic and contemporary abridged readings, including contributions from Clifford Geertz, Doreen Massey, Peter Jackson, Alan Latham, J.B. Jackson, Gillian Rose, Clarence J. Glacken, Alexander Wilson, Liisa Malkki, Georg Simmel, Robyn Longhurst, Don Mitchell, Gill Valentine, and Lila Abu-Lughod. It is divided into eight parts – Approaching Culture; Cultural Geography: a Transatlantic Genealogy; Landscape; Nature; Identity and Place in a Global Context; Home and Away; Difference; Culture as Resource – that the editors feel represent the scope of the discipline and its key concepts. Readings were selected based on their originality, accessibility, and empirical focus, allowing students to grasp the conceptual and theoretical tools of cultural geography through the grounded research of leading scholars in the field. Each part begins with an introduction that discusses the key concepts, their history and relation to cultural geography, and connections to other disciplines and practices. Six to seven abridged book chapters and journal articles, each with their own focused intro- ductions, are also included in each part. The readability, broad scope, and coverage of both classic and contemporary pieces from the US and UK make The Cultural Geography Reader relevant and accessible for a broad audience of under- graduate students and graduate students alike.

The statistical information in this report was collected from published sources and a questionnaire sent to geography department chairmen in 1971. The results of the questionnaire 'indicate a surplus of Ph.D. graduates in geography for the number of jobs available in the field. The number of degrees in geography at Sthe doctoral, master's, and baccalaureate levels is expected to double in the 1970s. College teaching remains the preemptive career choice of geographers, yet the surplus will encourage university administrators to hold down salaries, increase teaching loads, and defer tenure. Geographers formerly dependent upon college teaching jobs must develop alternative career opportunities. The ten largest geography departments granted over 50 percent of all doctoral degrees. The center of graduate activity is shifting to universities on the west coast. Urban geography, cultural geography, and economic geography are the most popular/topical specialities of contemporary graduate students.

  • From the Department Head
    January 2005 KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY No. 25 DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY FROM THE DEPARTMENT HEAD New Year’s greetings from your K-State geography community in Seaton Hall! No, it has not been a year since you last got a K-State geography Alumni Newsletter. The faculty decided to create a newsletter that would correspond with our annual reporting of calendar year accomplishments and be (hopefully) mailed out (and posted on the department web page) in January. It remains to be seen if we’ll have a second alumni newsletter this year in June. It has been a busy summer and fall semester. We continue to teach a lot of students about geography. We again had over 2,000 K-State students enrolled in a geography class this autumn, with over 1,000 of those in World Regional Geography (GEOG 100). Spring 2005 semester continues this trend. Tuition-based revenue is increasingly important at your alma mater. The faculty and students have been active in research and a number of K-State geographers have been in the news. Please check out the departmental web page (www.ksu.edu/geography) and click on “News” for links to these multiple media releases, our weekly (during the semester) Seaton Globe, and past Alumni Newsletters. I guess the biggest news is that Kevin Blake was elected to serve our Great Plains / Rocky Mountain region of the AAG as Regional Councilor. Dr. Blake’s term officially starts this coming summer, but rumor has it that the work has already started. It is a big help to the K-State geography community to have another insider (both a voice and an ear) with the AAG.
