FYW-1127 To Walk the Land

Through weekly hikes, the goal of this seminar is that you would come to know and enjoy the land, your local upstate environment, in a deeper way; to appreciate its natural and cultural history; to better understand our connection to and dependence on the land; and to communicate this new understanding effectively. Students will explore arguments and create their own through a series of guided writing assignments that will introduce them to college-level writing. This seminar is physically demanding and time consuming because of one six-hour afternoon hike and one two-hour discussion meeting per week. 4 credits.
