Special Opportunities for Community College Students!
We extend a special invitation for prospective transfer students to take part in a tour of the Department of Geography & the Environment after the conclusion of the symposium. See details below. In addition, community college students can participate in the symposium in two ways. First, geography faculty at Southern California community colleges are invited to select up to 3 students from their institutions to present an academic poster at All Points of the Compass. This is an excellent opportunity for outstanding students to present their research in a friendly, supportive setting. Second, community college students are eligible to participate in the "Compass Cartography Competition" competition described above. Please contact Dr. Zia Salim (zsalim@fullerton.edu) for more information about any of these 3 opportunities.
