Jon Little Named GeoTech Distinguished Geospatial Educator

Congratulations to Jon Little on his selection by the National Geospatial Technology Center of Excellence as the 2017 GeoTech Center's Distinguished Geospatial Educator Award winner! Jon was chosen based on his leadership in geospatial curriculum and education exemplified by his work as Principle Investigator on a National Science Foundation grant and his involvement with the New York GIS Association. Jon received the award on June 7 at the GeoEd'17 Conference in Louisville, KY at which he gave a presenation entitled Building a Geospatial Information Science Technology Certificate in Western New York: Get the GIST!
Coincidentally, last Saturday's commencement ceremony included MCC's very first GIST Certificate graduate, we hope the first of many MCC students who will benefit from the programs Jon has helped to create.
