Dear All, 

I’m writing to promote my course for this coming Autumn 2013, ENVIR 495D: Culture & Conservation: Protected Areas Management in Global Perspective. This class will meet either the Human & Social Dimensions or the International breadth requirements for the Program on the Environment major. 

For all of you that are interested in the Peace Corps, an information session will be held on campus tomorrow! It is a good chance to learn more about the program and have any questions answered that you may have. 

When: Thursday, June 6th, 2013
12:30pm-1:30pm (Presentation and Q&A),
1:30pm-2:00pm (Light Refreshments and Social)
Where: PoE/Wallace Hall Commons
Who: Presentations by the ENVIR 480 Sustainability Studio students
What: This quarter, students explored challenging questions related to sustainability and investing, and incorporating discussions of values and action: Should the UW’s endowment be a tool for pursuing environmental goals? 

Check out a field trip to Mt. Rainier that the ENVIR 280 class went on this past weekend! The group traveled from the mouth of the Nisqually River (where they were birdwatching) to the source, where they learned about subalpine ecology and glaciers.
