Welcome to the website of Geog 305, Geography of Sub-Saharan Africa. This site is primarily intended for students enrolled in the course, but we also welcome any passers-by who want to see what we are doing in the course, or to post ideas and views on the course blog.

You can find course materials – including such items as the course calendar and required readings – listed in the column on the left. This main section of the page is the course blog, is a place for discussion of issues that we have touched upon in class, questions that members of the class may have for me or for other members of the class, or for exchanging or airing ideas on topics that you think should have been discussed in class but weren’t. Please also feel free to post here links to any news stories or other items you think are relevant to the subject matter of the class, and might be of interest to other class members.
