Former UM undergraduate student and current UM professor Brian Arbic will describe his experience as a United States Peace Corps volunteer teacher in Liberia and Ghana, West Africa. He will also describe a surprise reunion with his prize pupil from Ghana, Joseph Ansong, 20 years later, and how it led to Ansong's hiring by Arbic's lab in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences.
