GCL 128

Spring 2016 All Classes

All Classes

Credit: 3 hours.

This Grand Challenge Learning experience course is part of a 3-year pilot and is certified for General Education credit for Humanities & the Arts (Literature and the Arts). "Sustainability" may seem like it's all about science but as human beings, we learn to act on our environment through experiences that shape our relation to the natural world. In this class we think about how stories help us to explore these connections to food, water, and energy. Turning the campus into our lab and our readings into inspiration, we will source meals and embark on field trips. We will read memorable works of literature from different parts of the world including popular dystopic fiction ("cli-fi").

This course satisfies the General Education Criteria in Fall 2022 for:
