  • Alum Jason Swartz '18 standing at a marina.
    “It’s not just forestry and green spaces; it’s plants and people and culture. I’m even remembering my first year seminar class with Dr. Linda Semu, which was about race. Over the past year or two, we have been focusing our efforts on equity and environmental justice."
  • Cleo Braver '78
    "If we can’t get lawmakers to enact public policy that incentivizes the right things, we can act on our own as consumers. Every single human can be an active participant in changing our food systems just by voting with their fork every day.”
  • Courtney-Schlotterbeck
    "The Criminal Justice program as a whole was very unique in terms of the faculty...you were learning from all these people that actually work or worked in the legal field and the justice system."
