LETTER
FROM THE EDITOR IN CHIEF
I am thrilled to announce Field Notes’ third issue in two years. I have taken up the reins after two amazing issues were published in the same school year, running expectations high. However, I was compelled to encourage the continuity of this project in hopes that it can serve as a platform to acknowledge the diversity of the geographic discipline as well as promote undergraduate students’ hard work. Additionally, I hope this issue will provide both peers and faculty members an opportunity to work together and encourage the integration and pursuit of ideas within the department. This issue contains six articles pertaining to geographic thought and practice that were produced by undergraduate students. The journal introduces a range of relevant topics from local urban studies on gentrification in Montreal to food security amongst northern Inuit communities. Field Notes’ third issue was not, under any circumstance, an individual endeavor; on the contrary, I would like to extend my greatest appreciation for both the undergraduate and graduate editors. The collaboration of editors, with their distinct strengths and backgrounds, contributed to the authenticity and rigorous publication process that will become evident as you flip through these next pages. I sincerely hope you enjoy reading the following articles written by none other than your peers. Kevin Drouin-Leger Editor-in-Chief
