Fort Hays State University’s Sternberg Museum of Natural History will pay tribute to a fallen professor with a memorial talk and movie night.
Dr. John Heinrichs, professor of geography and chairman of the Geosciences Department, died Jan. 11 at age 56.
The memorial will begin at 7 p.m. Feb. 28 at the museum and will be followed at 7:40 p.m. by the film “Chasing Ice.”
The documentary follows National Geographic photographer James Balog across the Arctic as he deploys time-lapse cameras designed to capture a multi-year record of the world’s changing glaciers.
A question-and-answer session will follow.
