Geography at UND

[andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!!]

I am considering going into a geography field for school. And I am looking for information on UND's geography department. I am such a big Sioux fan and supporter of this state in general that I wouldn't mind going to UND and am looking into what they offer for geography lovers .

Thanks for any information.

I took geography 121 and loved it. The professor (brad Runquist) is kind of boring but if you do the work, you will get an A. It is very well run.

I graduated from UND in 1984 with a major in Geography and a minor in Geology. Computer cartography was just coming of age and thought that was I wanted to do when I graduated. Unfortunately there weren't too many companies or municipalities doing it at that time and the ones that were hiring were paying poverty wages, so I ended up going into the fire sprinkler industry and doing drawings using AutoCad.

I did really enjoy Geography at UND. There was a new prof., who was my advisor, by the name of Munski. I understand that he is now the head of the department. Great guy. I hope you enjoy your time at UND in Geography.

I took a geography class from Munski. One of my favorite professors at UND.

Munski is fantastic. I had him for a couple of classes. Cookies were great, and he made the classes fun. We also created a rap song in honor of the man "Doug Munski" to the tune of "Brass Monkey" by the Beastie Boys. I can't quite remember the lyrics, but the main line was "Doug Munski, that funky Munski". We weren't that original

Thanks everyone who commented. It sounds like Munski is quite the guy.

Munski is awesome. His horribly mismatched suits, his stories about his mother-in-law, his constant shilling of cookies.

Diggler, you are one to talk about mismatched suits!

You're right, I am. Because not only does my suit match, but I look downright stunning in it.

One of the classes I took from Munski was either the Geography of Canada or Manitoba, I don't recall which, but it did include a field trip to Winnipeg, which was a blast. We stayed at the Place Louis Riel, ate at the Spaghetti Factory and took in some nightlife. Oh, and we went to some museums, too.

Mad Dog Munski, the best prof. at UND.
