In this episode of Planet Geo, hosts Jesse and Chris have an in-depth conversation with Dr. Lee Kump, Dean of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences at Penn State. In a chat that's more exciting than discovering a trilobite fossil, they explore Lee's profound career journey, paper citations thick enough to bury any rock hound, and his transition from groundbreaking geoscience research to becoming an influential administrator. Kump’s impressive resume includes over 130 published papers and groundbreaking work in Earth System Science, not to mention scuba diving in poisonous waters for fun. He also shares poignant stories about the importance of good leadership, inspired by his late father, and underscores the necessity for modern geoscience education to address pressing global issues like climate change. Buckle up for a conversation that’s as complex and layered as the Earth's crust itself!
