About

Explore one of the most dramatic environmental crises in American history. Dr. Antle looks at how the Dust Bowl reshaped Kansas, the people who lived through it, and the land itself. He reveals why the Dust Bowl matters nearly 100 years later.

Dr. Jay Antle’s passion for the environment was sparked during a transformative field course in Yellowstone National Park. He earned his Ph.D. in American Environmental History from the University of Kansas and has taught at Johnson County Community College (JCCC) since 2000, where he is also the Executive Director of the Sustainability Center. Antle is a five-time JCCC Distinguished Service Award recipient and former Chair of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education Board. Outside the classroom, he’s an accomplished distance runner, avid hiker and storm chaser.
