Teaching

Girodet_PortraitOfDrTriosonGivingHisSonAGeographyLessonAt the University of Oregon, I teach several classes and am engaged in several of educational missions. I also serve in advisor and committee roles to graduate students in several departments. This page serves as the hub for resources related to individual courses, student projects, information for prospective students, and other educational missions.
