ENVS 19 Encountering Forests

What do people care about forests? How do people become knowledgeable about a landscape
and how do they use theoretical and place-based, practical knowledge about forests? In this
course, we attempt to see forests from different cultural and professional lenses including those
of Abenaki resource practitioners and natural resource managers. We look at the ways different
types of information and different cultural perspectives influence ecological restoration,
conservation and land use decisions. Open to all classes.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
