For the first time in more than 10 years, Geography of Illinois, a course that originated in the 1970s, will be taught at Eastern and for the first time ever it will be taught online. The revisions to the course, first proposed by Chris Laingen, an assistant geography professor, in the spring of 2011, were approved by the Council on Academic Affairs at its meeting Thursday. Laingen, who appeared before the council to explain the revisions and answer their questions, said the course has been on the books since the 1970s. He said the last evidence of the course being taught at Eastern is in the late 90s or the early 2000s.
