Look at Dr. Fleming on the university site. SAMFORD GEOGRAPHY!!!

Samford University Howard College of Arts and Sciences Geography professor Jonathan Fleming created a Covid-19 Data Dashboard for the state of Alabama in the early weeks of the pandemic. The site has been viewed more than half-a-million times since then, highlighting the importance of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology that is his academic specialty. Here, he teaches a lesson outside.

We are proud to have outstanding faculty like Fleming for their contributions beyond the classroom.
