Clark Mountains, Antartica
Clark's geography program is the only one in North America to have a mountain range named for it. The Clark Mountains in Antarctica were named by one of program's graduates, Paul Siple (seen here of the cover of Time magazine), famed meteorologist, explorer and inventor of the "wind chill factor." Siple named the peaks of the Clark Mountains after his faculty instructors: Jones, Atwood, Burnham, Ekblaw, and Van Valkenburg.
