So extremely proud of my boss & mentor Jack Dangermond, not only for his induction last night on @Harvard’s campus, into the @americanacad, but for his beautiful speech on behalf of his Class V (Leadership), and as brilliantly introduced by @JamesFallows.
Huge thanks to the faculty & students of @ClarkUniversity this week for the brilliant interactions & hospitality! It was a delight to deliver the Atwood Lecture, participate in a seminar w/ Geog faculty & doctoral students, & more! photos.app.goo.gl/Ey78qaKG1p…
