On September 16, the UWM Department of Geography welcomed visitors from Justus-Liebig-University in Giessen, Germany. The group of undergraduate students were led by their instructor, Timo Kleiner, a former exchange student in the department during the Fall 2013 semester. As part of their visit, the group toured the UWM campus and the department, met with Profs. Woonsup Choi and Linda McCarthy, talked with Donna Genzmer of the Cartography & GIS Center, and toured the American Geographical Society Library.

In the evening, graduate students and faculty convened with the group at the Hubbard Park Beer Garden to socialize. Although it was a short visit, the group enjoyed their time here and were appreciative of the hospitality extended by the department.
