Join one or both of our mailing lists!

Geography Advising carries information that all UW geography students need:

• information on courses and changes
• departmental news and events
• relevant courses in other departments
• meetings and events of particular interest to geography students
• information about career meetings and interviews on campus
• information about internships and some career-related news

Jobs for Geographers carries information that all UW seniors, juniors, smart sophomores and many former students need:

• any new job postings we've received
• Kate's Career Tips (free!)
• other career-related information relevant to job searches

Jobs for Geographers focuses on the job search, but cannot possibly present all the jobs available. We'll list any jobs that are sent to us, but we simply don't have enough time to go out and search for jobs for everyone. We want to help you learn how to find (and get) jobs, which is why we include Kate's Career Tips (free!). Please let us know if other information would be especially useful to you.

How to subscribe:

Be forewarned that ListProc is a computer program that automates mailing lists, which are called listservs. To get it to work, every command and space and address must be in exactly the right place. Also, ListProc retrieves your email address automatically from the message you send, so you have to send your subscription request from the place where you want to receive the subscription. When it has received your message, it automatically sends a confirmation that you're on the list.

Be sure there is a single space between "subscribe" and "geogu-l" and between "geogu-l" and Your Name (in whatever form you want to be listed). Also be aware that the l in "geogu-l" really is an "ell," (a lowercase L) and not the number 1 (one). Also, do not type the brackets in your email.
