Dear GenEders, Inquiry group # 8 met this afternoon to continue our discussion. We had a guest alumnus from the College, Ben Maddox (sp?), who joined in the discussion. I, personally, was delighted to hear his views on the environment, consumptive behavior of the industrialized world, and the need for across the curriculum environmental education. Needless to say the discussion roamed freely and we never really did fence it in. Suffice to say that at the end of the hour we were dabbling with the thought that some experimental courses should be implemented as GenEd courses which would be interdisciplinary in nature and would address ecology and contemporary science issues (cloning, for example) and their political and social implications.
