COGA inaugurated talks with professional geographers at the Museum of Discovery in Fort Collins, and followed this with series in Pueblo at the Steelworks Center of the West and at Mountain Chalet in Colorado Springs. Designed to bring professional geographer's thoughts and insights on current topics to the public, these talks were geared towards educators with time set aside for a question and answer session and open discussion afterwards. Do you have ideas about a geographer and a location you would like to bring together? Contact coga@uccs.edu.
