Robert Lemon Lehre

Robert teaches human geography at both the undergraduate and graduate level. His courses primarily address social issues related to geographic concepts of space, place and landscape. The structure of his classes are often in the form of a lecture/ discussion hybrid. In other words, Robert has open-ended lectures where students are encouraged to contribute to a larger conversation about the topic at hand. Additionally, Robert’s courses focus on topics that are both of interest to students as well as relevant in contemporary geographic discourse. Whether Robert is teaching on topics of food, film, or cities, Robert strives to get students to see differently and to think critically about the social processes that produce their everyday environment as well as better decipher the myriad of meanings social spaces may represent.
