Hastings Ninth Grade Center teacher Dan Treat presented at The 9th International Conference on Geographic Naming and Geographic Education in Seoul, South Korea.
The conference was organized by the Northeast Asian History Foundation. Treat presented his paper, “Houston and an Extraordinary Event: Hurricane Harvey and the Korean Community,” which explored the impact of Hurricane Harvey and how the Korean community in Houston responded to the storm.
Treat also conducted field studies during the trip, including observations at the Joint Security Area of the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea.
