Malcolm L. Comeaux served as professor of geography at Arizona State University from 1969-2001. The annual Malcolm L. Comeaux Lecture was established to honor his legacy by providing a platform to bring national and international leaders in the discipline of geography to the School of Geographical Sciences and Urban Planning for an annual lecture. Your gift will provide support to bring a distinguished scholar to the ASU campus each year to speak to a broad audience of faculty, students, alumni and friends of the department on exciting new directions in geography.
