NightSide - Geography Professors Vernon Domingo and James Hayes-Bohanan Sat Down With Dan Rea

BOSTON (CBS) - With test scores driving much of the funding that schools are awarded, many districts have seen their curriculum evolve to better fit the assessment tests. But this has led to some subjects, such as geography, taking a back seat. Bridgewater State College Geography Professors Vernon Domingo and James Hayes-Bohanan sit down with Dan to talk about the importance of geography in today's global world, and why they think it's a school subject worth saving.

Orignally broadcast November 7th, 2011.
