The two instructors for this learning community will introduce and integrate science and the humanities to help students develop their capacities for the logical and quantitative reasoning, critical analysis, and effective communication. This learning community will also include experiential learning opportunities to help students synthesize various perspectives and develop an understanding of the cultural, economic, political, and ecological relevance of climate change.
