There are still a few open spots on our upcoming physical geography field school, where we road trip through the mountains of BC and Alberta and see/experience/understand glaciers, landforms, and environmental change. Reach out if you're interested!

Academics, do any of you feel like your institution has done an excellent (or even "pretty good") job at instituting policies to manage Generative "AI"? I'm on a committee looking to craft a framework for our school to guide faculty & students.
