Guntram Herb

Border geographies is a very interesting course that has a lot of importance beyond just geography (even though its in the geo department). The biggest thing is that Professor Herb is always willing to investigate issues that are not mainstream or very heard of if students bring them up.

Professor Herb and Professor Lee co-taught my section of the course. It was easy to tell that they both are passionate about the material, and I found Professor Herb to be an especially effective teacher of the material.

Professor is one of the most remarkable professors at Middlebury. His teaching style pushes you to think beyond the standard boundaries of economics and to really engage with the ideas behind the models.
