“I enjoy explaining complicated things to people who may not understand them. I don’t believe in ‘science’ people. You can teach and explain just about anything.” ⛅

Dr. Jon Nese oversees the Meteorology and Atmospheric Science undergraduate program in the Penn State College of Earth and Mineral Sciences and has had an impressive career journey: including stops at The Weather Channel, The Franklin Institute, and co-authoring a couple of books.

Earning all three of his meteorology degrees at Penn State and later returning to teach, he said, "For me, teaching is just plain fun. Every semester is a new journey with the students, filled with Eureka moments. Often you don't know until years later that you had an impact."

"Everybody thinks that if you get a meteorology degree, you go into television. I take great joy when students recognize you can do a lot with a meteorology degree.” ⛈
