Abstract | This contribution to the "Comments" section first introduces a metric designed to estimate the amount of attention given to different countries of the world in academia using Internet "term paper mills". This metric is used to introduce a call for the incorporation of more geographic education regarding peripheral areas of the world into the broader college curriculum. Even as geography courses struggle to incorporate knowledge of many peripheral parts of the world, the rest of the university experience is continuing to reflect perceived "national interests."
