  • HAWAII National Park HAWAIIAN ISLANDS
    HAWAII National Park HAWAIIAN ISLANDS UNITED STATES RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION N AT IONAL PAR.K. SERIES n A 5 o The world-famed volcano of Kilauea, eight miles in circumference An Appreciation of the Hawaii National Park By E. M. NEWMAN, Traveler and Lecturer Written Especially for the United States Railroad Administration §HE FIRES of a visible inferno burning in the midst of an earthly paradise is a striking con­ trast, afforded only in the Hawaii National Park. It is a combination of all that is terrify­ ing and all that is beautiful, a blending of the awful with the magnificent. Lava-flows of centuries are piled high about a living volcano, which is set like a ruby in an emer­ ald bower of tropical grandeur. Picture a perfect May day, when glorious sunshine and smiling nature combine to make the heart glad; then multiply that day by three hundred and sixty-five and the result is the climate of Hawaii. Add to this the sweet odors, the luscious fruits, the luxuriant verdure, the flowers and colorful beauty of the tropics, and the Hawaii National Park becomes a dreamland that lingers in one's memory as long as memory survives. Pa ae three To the American People: Uncle Sam asks you to be his guest. He has prepared for you the choice places of this continent—places of grandeur, beauty and of wonder. He has built roads through the deep-cut canyons and beside happy streams, which will carry you into these places in comfort, and has provided lodgings and food in the most distant and inaccessible places that you might enjoy yourself and realize as little as possible the rigors of the pioneer traveler's life.

    DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY ProfessorDavidBarker,BSc Wales, PhD Bristol, DipUrb&RegStudies Birmingham –HeadofDepartment WORKOFTHEDEPARTMENT The Department of Geography and Geology continued to mount a full programme of undergraduate teaching and postgraduate supervision in spite of the challenges imposed by budget and physical resources (space and equipment) and uncertainties created by academic staff resignations, vacancies that remained unfilled, and imminent staff retirements in Geology. Professor Trevor Jackson retired at the end of the academic year. Dr David Dodman resigned and departed Jamaica at the beginning of the second semester, and Dr Susan Mains was on maternity leave during that semester. Mr Kevon Rhiney was appointed as Temporary Assistant Lecturer in Geography from January to the end of the academic year to help us throughthisdifficultperiod. Student numbers in Geology continued to increase dramatically. Student enrolment in first year was 40 per cent higher than in 2006/07, while enrolment in second year was 30 per cent larger. These increased numbers created serious difficulties for staff in practical classes, and an acute shortage of microscopes needed to be urgently addressed. First year and final year numbers in Geography were comparable to those of the previous year, but second year numbers were slightly down as the impact of the abnormally small entry from the Faculty of Humanities andEducationin2006/07workeditswaythroughthesystem. The Department participated in the University’s 60th anniversary celebrations by organizing and hosting a highly successful international conference between July 7 and 11 on the theme “Foundations and Directions: Celebrating Geography at the University of the West 268 Indies.” The organizing committee was chaired by Dr David Miller, and 39 papers were presented at the meeting, 24 of which were presented by current or past members of the Department, including postgraduate students.
