| ENVS 407 Environmental Studies Theory and Practice
Winter Term, 2012, crn 27297 2 credits Prerequisite: ENV or ESCI major Grading: P/N only Instructor: Alan Dickman, 302 Pacific Hall 346-2549 adickman@uoregon.edu My official office hours are Mondays from noon to 1PM but feel free to drop by anytime I happen to be in – if the door is closed I might be there – just knock. Or call or email to set up an appointment time. Times: Thursdays Noon to 2 PM plus one required Saturday field trip January 21 or 28 (in case of unsafe weather related postponement) Where: 249 Columbia Hall (ENVS conference room) My goals: As director of the ENVS program I enjoy getting to work with and know ENVS graduate students, but most of my interactions with undergraduate students are in large classes with a mix of majors. I’m hoping to get to know a small sample of ENVS and ESCI majors better and learn about your reasons for being in this program, your aspirations, and ways we might improve the program. I also want to participate in a small seminar style course on a topic that interests me. Why might you want to do this? A chance to get to know other ENVS and ESCI majors better, a chance to work closely with a faculty member, a chance to hear from ENVS graduate students and think about your future, and an enhanced understanding of our environment. What more could you want? My expectations of you: Respect one another and participate fully. If you do, it will be easy to pass. If you don’t, it will be easy to fail. Your expectations? Let’s talk about these in class Game plan: See the tentative list of readings and events on the next page. We will probably adjust these as we go depending on your interests and other opportunities that arise.
