First Year Seminar 191HFA10 - FYS-Where Are We Walking?

Ever read a land acknowledgement and ask yourself "but what else can I/we do?" In this course we will explore the UMass campus and surrounding area with Indigenous knowledges. Together as a class and a community, we ask: what happens when we approach and experience our surroundings with different understandings? Over the course of a semester, we will visit sites on campus and discuss how we have given meaning--and can give new meaning--to the environment, animals, plants, stars, and even community.

First year students only - (Freshmen or Sophomore status) First year (Fr or Soph)
