In this freshman seminar course we will explore the intricate relationship between humans and plants. We will focus on current issues facing modern agriculture, while concurrently putting these issues into historical context. We will use plant science studies to delve into fundamental biological concepts and to practice the scientific method. After completing this course, students will be able to apply their knowledge to a broad range of disciplines.
