Join us on Friday, February 7, from 6:30-8pm for the next in our series of Florida nature writer guest lectures. We’ve invited author Christopher F. Meindl to speak to us about his fantastic new book, “Florida Springs: From geography to politics and restoration". After his talk, there will be time for questions and discussion.
As a native Floridian, geography professor and Director of the USF’s graduate level Florida Studies Program, Dr. Meindl gets to live his dream every day: reading, exploring and helping students learn about connections between people and the environment in the Sunshine State. He earned MA degrees in History (San Diego State University) and Geography (University of North Dakota) before completing his PhD in Geography at the University of Florida in 1996. After teaching in Utah and Georgia, Dr. Meindl found his way back to Florida, working at USF St. Petersburg since 2003. Meindl is an environmental geographer, combining his interests in history and natural resources (particularly water), especially in Florida.
We look forward to hearing the insight an expert like Dr. Meindl can provide on the complexities of our native Florida springs and hope you can join us for this special event!
Copies of Dr. Meindl’s book will be available for purchase at this event.
