Dear Geographers and Sustainers: See below for information on a graduate assistantship that could interest students with background and interests in climatology, and who are graduating this term. For the Fall term, our own program in Geography here at the University of Tennessee should have teaching assistantships to offer applicants interested in climate-related topics, and all other topics of research pursued in our department. Nebraska has a National Science Foundation-funded research assistantship available in the climate area, to start Spring term 2019 (early January). If you are curious about graduate school and assistantships, ask a professor, or ask me. Sincerely, Sally Horn Sally P.
