When a name was being selected for new territory, eccentric lobbyist George M. Willing suggested "Idaho," an Indian term he claimed meant "gem of the mountains." It was later revealed Willing had made up the name himself, and the original Idaho territory was re-named (A state in west central United States in the Rocky Mountains) Colorado because of it. Eventually the controversy was forgotten, and modern-day Idaho was given the made-up name when the

Extractions: Staff Departmental Office (208) 356-1472 Geography has an ancient intellectual heritage which has persisted as humans have attempted to understand the complexities and interrelationships of world physical and cultural systems. Rooted in both the physical and social sciences, geography functions as a synthesizing discipline providing a "bridge" between these two often disparate interests. The Geography Department strives to perpetuate this long-standing objective by providing classes which investigate both the physical and cultural world. Geography students are trained to think in locational and spatial terms. In this context, students consider where physical and cultural phenomena are located and why they occupy this space. These principles, when combined with the interaction of earth systems, are the central focus of the discipline and the Geography Department. Our courses are designed to fulfill several purposes: (1) To unequivocally support the mission of BYU-Idaho and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints.(2) Provide exposure to the thinking of influential scholars of the discipline, both past and present. (3) Prepare prospective teachers in geographic fundamentals to facilitate teaching those fundamentals to their students. (4) Encourage an understanding of geographic vocabulary. (5) Introduction to research methodology, and introduce students to leading edge technology in geographic research and practice, in areas such as GIS and land-use planning. (6) Help students gain geographic literacy and certification as teachers of Geography at secondary level.

Extractions: Idaho, among the last of the lower 48 to be settled and granted statehood, today remains one of the last true reminders of the pristine beauty of the West as it must have appeared to those earliest settlers. Vast regions of Idaho today remain wild, undeveloped and inaccessible, and the state ranks second only to Alaska in the amount of totally undeveloped land. Among the many magnificent mountain ranges that dominate Idaho's geography, perhaps none can match the rugged Sawtooths for sheer scenic splendor. Much of the range is embraced within the 2.1-million acre Sawtooth National Forest and its recreational importance is recognized and protected within the Sawtooth National Recreation Area.

Extractions: dreardon@starbulletin.com Idaho is the lone item on the shortest of short lists. But the first question is if the Western Athletic Conference is even shopping at all. The league begins its annual board of directors meetings today at Half Moon Bay, Calif., with one major goal, according to commissioner Karl Benson. The WAC's presidents and chancellors need to decide whether to stay at eight members or invite the anxious-to-join Vandals. "Right now the focus is on trying to finish the membership piece," Benson said in a telephone interview yesterday. "The first order of business is not necessarily Idaho, but whether eight or nine schools is in the best interest of the WAC. There will more than likely be some Idaho influence in that discussion. Eight or nine, however, is independent of Idaho as a possible member. But there's no timetable to any of this. It's very possible we'll come away Friday without a decision one way or another." The main consideration is scheduling, Benson said. An even number is good for basketball, since all teams have travel partners. An odd number is better for football, since each team has an equal number of home and away games without deleting a conference team from the schedule, as the WAC does now.
