Outdoor Studies 202: C reative Expressions of Nature
4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
Offered as part of the Adirondack Semester. This course looks at our interaction with the natural world through an individual and artistic eye. We consider the purpose of art in general through a look at the genre of nature writing, nature journaling, papermaking, sketching, poetry and artistic representation. Students try their hand at various modes of artistic expression and mine their own experiences in the outdoors for raw material, to explore the intersection of self and the natural world, that internal landscape where the "eye" and the "I" meet. Through a series of focusreading and creative writing assignments, sketching exercises, creative workshops and a gallery visit, students are encouraged to slow down, observe and reflect on the personal relationship they have with the natural world.

Outdoor Studies 203: Land Use Change in the Adirondacks
4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
Using the Adirondacks as a case study, this course examines current activities in land planning and the importance of historical context. Study of Adirondack history begins with 16th-century information from European explorers and Native Americans. Emphasis is then placed on industrial and recreational use in the 19th century. The course highlights formation of the State Forest Preserve and the Adirondack Park, and regulations governing private land use. Study of the present utilizes political theory such as internal colonization and core-periphery. The course employs local examples through discussion and field trips.

Outdoor Studies 310: Philosophy of the Environment
4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
Offered as part of the Adirondack Semester. Our current environmental problems are due primarily to the total volume of human consumption. This course focuses on the problem of high consumption in developed countries and possible solutions for it. Is this high consumption necessary for our happiness, or could we be just as happy while doing less damage to the natural world? If we could, as many environmentalists argue, why do so few of us live as though we truly believe that? Is it possible to consume less, either as individuals or as a society? What kinds of changes are feasible in society to reduce our damage to the natural world? The course offers a theory of happiness intended to make it possible to answer these questions. Also offered as Environmental Studies 310 and Philosophy 310.
