COF’s ENVIRONMENTAL FORUM COURSE
Connecting Students/Connecting Campuses
Environmental Forum is a two credit course offered to all
students in the Colleges of the Fenway. Weekly lectures of
contemporary environmental issues will be given by local,
regional and national experts. The course also includes a
Service Learning component, which focuses on a local environmental
topic area, and a field sampling and assessment exercise.
Students in this course will:
- learn how to collect information to evaluate environmental
issues
- assess science, social and economic-based perspectives
to develop approaches to environmental solutions
- develop life-long learning tools and techniques for environmental
problem solving
One theme of this course is to demonstrate that environmental
problems are best solved by the collective expertise of a
wide range of informed individuals. In offering this course,
COF hopes to attract a diverse makeup of students in varying
programs from the COF community.
