In the spring 2019 edition of ESE 311 will systematically explore a range of environmental issues as they are represented in the Vermilion River system of central Illinois, starting with the Boneyard Creek and heading downstream toward the Gulf of Mexico. Along the way, we’ll look at urban stormwater management, sewage treatment (cooler than it sounds!), the translocation of endangered mussels to sites in Vermilion County, changes to hydrology and pollution from industrial agriculture, coal issues, activism, and the importance of waterways for outdoor recreation. On Tuesdays, we’ll meet as a regular class to discuss a set of readings about the issue of the week, and on Thursdays we’ll host speakers (usually from outside the university) who are directly involved with those issues. The Thursday lectures will be held in an auditorium TBD and open to the public.
