------------------
Hello,
With apologies for the cross-posting...

We're at the very beginning stages of an initiative to promote GIS 
across the humanities and social science disciplines at St. Lawrence 
University.  While we have a small but solid user base in the sciences, 
we'd like to explore applications of GIS in teaching in other 
disciplines.  With the notable exception of Joel Goldfield at Fairfield 
(whose very interesting presentation I saw at CALICO in March), are 
there others out there who are using GIS in language and culture 
teaching?  Or even more broadly in other humanities/soc sci disciplines? 
 If so, I'd like to hear from you about what you (or your colleagues) 
are doing and how your campus climate supports (or doesn't!) these 
efforts.  
Thanks in advance for taking the time to respond to this query.
Regards,
Carine
