Dr. Gourley is the newest addition to the Environmental Science Program at Trinity.  His expertise in geology and geographic information systems (GIS) complements the current ENVS faculty and his field based research interests will provide Trinity students with an opportunity to study geology and environmental science beyond the gates of Trinity.  His teaching style is primarily hands-on which engages students in both the lab and in the field.  Jonathan is excited to be a part of a small liberal arts college.  After graduating from Dickinson College in 1996 he tailored his graduate school career with the goal of returning to a small school with a strong liberal arts tradition.
