Deteriorating economic conditions during the 1970s led to recurrent violence and a dropoff in tourism. Elections in 1980 saw the democratic socialists voted out of office.

Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java(tm). Jamaica's popular tourism image is of vast sandy beaches and all-inclusive hotels. But the island's small villages represent a more realistic view of Jamaican culture and community life. These are economically poor, isolated communities where people struggle to survive. As English-speaking descendants of slaves, the Jamaicans are resilient, proud, and resourceful. While their lives are difficult, the people are hard-working, spiritually enriched and hopeful for their future. Global Volunteers started its ground-breaking work in the Blue Mountain communities, and we continue this 20-year relationship today. Since 1984, we have been privileged to work with and learn from the generous people in this region. We invite you to share this formidable relationship with us! Help upgrade infrastructure and improve educational opportunities to ensure a better future for children and their families in these quiet villages. "Words fail me to express my sincere thanks for the recorders and music. I can tell you it's one of the best things that has happened to the children and myself."

99. The Department Of Geography And Geology Although the University of the West Indies has campuses in Trinidad, Barbados andJamaica, geography and Geology are only offered as degreelevel subjects at http://www.uwimona.edu.jm/geoggeol/Department/History.htm

The Department of Geography and Geology Although the University of the West Indies has campuses in Trinidad, Barbados and Jamaica, Geography and Geology are only offered as degree-level subjects at Mona in Jamaica. Undergraduate students are attracted from across the English speaking Caribbean, although the largest number of students typically come from Jamaica. History of the Department The University established a Geology Department in July 1961 in an old wooden hut, formerly belonging to the Chemical Technology Department, with an intake of 26 students. Of the two main rooms in the building, one housed an alcohol still, powered by a very ancient, oil burning boiler, whilst the other provided accommodation for our students. As time went on, the alcohol gave way to a space for rock collections and private study. Although this change was viewed with rather mixed feelings by staff and students alike, it gave us a chance to spread ourselves, and the staff were able to build their own staff rooms, using old laboratory cupboards piled one on top of another, for walls. During the rainy seasons our students grouped themselves, often under raincoats, in the drier parts of the laboratory, while water flowed freely through the remainder of the room. The first Geology class graduated in 1964. Major changes happened in 1965. The Geology Department moved to its present quarters, the De la Beche Building, and geography was established, after teachers, planners and other professionals in the West Indies lobbied for the subject to be introduced into the University's curriculum. Geography was initially a sub-department of the Geology Department, but in 1971, became a separate Department. Following a restructuring of Departments in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences in August, 1996, the Geography and Geology Departments were merged to form the present Department of Geography and Geology.

UWI, Earth Science Research interests: • Tropical Karst Geomorphology; • Geographic Information Systems My research dissertation is looking at the cockpit karst geomorphology of The Cockpit Country in Jamaica, as well as the landforms found immediately outside its boundaries. Indeed, the Cockpit Country is the type area for the cockpit variety of tropical karst. The late Dr. Marjorie Sweeting and one of her graduate students, Mick Day, both from Oxford, carried out pioneering research in the area decades ago. I now seek to employ Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and other high-tech tools to re-examine the terrain in the hope of figuring out what exactly is 'cockpit karst'.
