I really enjoyed this course, it's one of my favorite I've taken at Midd and Jeff is probably my favorite prof I've had. He is entertaining and brings the course material to life, even if he takes a while to get things back to you. This class has a lot of work but I found it enjoyable to make maps so it didn't always feel like a lot of work.
I love how this course required me to think deeply about national identity and physical and mental borders. It definitely expanded my mind. Professor Herb provide lectures well and frequently provides handouts to make the material even more digestible. I highly recommend this course.
Love Jeff, great guy, makes boring coding stuff (the whole class is using javascript on google earth engine to make maps, and at the end you publish them!) about as entertaining it can be and he works hard to make the class pretty easy on you. Every week you work in lab and there's a project that's pretty similar you have to do but even if you get stuff wrong you get a second chance to submit.
