New Poli Sci class on sustainability and environmentalism

This spring semester, Les Thiele is teaching POS 4931:  "Sustainability in Action."

It will meet Tuesday 8-9 (3:00-4:55) and Thursday 9 (4:05-4:55).  Apart from class meetings, students will focusing on integrated projects on sustainability issues that will have them doing primary research on campus or in the community.

If they want to be in the course, they need to meet with Les Thiele and be approved, because the course is departmentally controlled and they cannot register themselves.

So if some of you who want to work next semester on some exciting sustainability projects, have them set up appointments for a meeting, then meet with Les.  His office hours are Thurs 10-2, and Fri. 10-12.
