Land, Nature and Environmental Values MinorWriting Studies
College of Liberal Arts
This multidisciplinary minor serves students in CLA and other colleges who have an interest in cultural issues relating to the environment. Students are introduced to the historical development, philosophical assumptions, and imaginative expression of the human relationship to
nature and are asked to consider implications of issues involving the use of nature. Students choose from a variety of courses relating some aspect of their major field to social, cultural, or historical trends in the larger society, and can include as many as 6 credits of outside
electives. For assistance in planning a minor in land, nature, and environmental values, see the minor adviser in the Department of Writing. Students must complete at least 15 credits in approved courses.
