Additional objects and topics of interest to me


The Astronomical Lyceum

There is nowhere like this place. It is full of historical astronomical
artifacts, and its owner and curator is a master storyteller. Located in
Magdalena, New Mexico and owned by John Briggs, I bring students here to
experience some of the rich lore of astronomical heritage during JanTerm
courses (see Favorite Classes).


Interdisciplinary Pursuits

My interest in ancient astronomical views causes me to rub shoulders with
people across campus.


Service Across Campus

There are many things that one can do to support an academic village. Here
are some things that I particularly enjoy (or have enjoyed) doing.


In Astronomy, but Not Research

Sharing One Sky, White papers, NSF panelist, journal reviewer
