Sad to inform you that our esteemed Esri colleague Dr. Michael Phoenix passed away last Friday after a short illness. Mike started Esri's education program back in 1992 and was given the Education Award by UCGIS in 2008. RIP my friend.

I approached two people to start a Human and AI Book club in 1/2025 associated with UCGIS, a largely quantitative-oriented group. As of today 50 list members, 7 active members. Of the 50 members, 41 Quantitative Geographers. We have a panel at AAG and it feels disingenuous. The experiment failed.
