Yeah, I Got a F#%*ing Job With a Liberal Arts Degree is a show that takes a deep look at the humanities and higher education more generally. Join Cal Poly Humboldt Dean Jeff Crane as he interviews a range of guests about the value of the liberal arts and education as a personal and public good.
This week's guest is Dr. Dylan Harris, who is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography & Environmental Studies at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs. Dylan is a broadly trained nature-society geographer with concentrations in political ecology, climate politics, energy politics, critical folklore studies, experimental methods, and environmental/climate justice. He considers himself to be a synergistic scholar and enjoys the creative process of working across and combining insights from multiple disciplines, connecting seemingly disparate threads of thought and bringing them forward in his research and teaching. It is important to him that his work extends beyond the university through sustained community partnerships, accessible writing, and collaborative research projects. Dylan was introduced to us by Dr. Alex Moulton, a guest on episode 42 and a fellow geographer.
This conversation touches on a lot, including Jeff and Dylan's shared connection to Mississippi, how living in many different places has informed Dylan's work, and the creation of new structures for research in the field of geography. This is an interesting conversation for those inside and outside of academia!
