For experienced dressage riders to improve understanding of straightness, rhythm, obedience, and suppleness. The goal is to improve application of aids through a balanced and effective seat. Riders at this level must have experience riding First Level movements or above.

Computers bring a new dimension to the mathematical theories of physics, including new methods of visualization and new ways to explore theory through computer experiments. This laboratory course will combine mathematics, physics, and computation in projects that make essential use of all three together. Topics from various subfields of physics will be packaged into self-contained modules for exploration through the use of high-level computational tools.

Travel through our solar system using results of the latest spacecraft. Explore the origins of our worlds through the study of planet formation, meteorites, asteroids, and comets. Discover the processes that shape planetary interiors, surfaces, and atmospheres. Compare our solar system to others by learning about newly discovered exoplanets. Trace the conditions that may foster life throughout the solar system and beyond.

Club Squash is excited to introduce the world of squash to newcomers while helping seasoned players refine their skills. The team practices and competes in the fall and spring through the College Squash Association.

Designed to integrate scientific and humanistic knowledge and methodologies, this seminar addresses the UN's Objectifs de développement durable by studying ecologies in French. We'll discuss the climate movement from Françoise d'Eaubonne's écoféminisme coined in 1974 to Fatima Ouassak's 2023 call for free movement in Pour une Écologie Pirate. Et nous serons libre.

This course is designed to intensively develop the speaking and listening skills necessary for daily life as students advance toward higher-level Japanese proficiency. Students engage in a variety of oral practice activities organized by situation and communicative function, working individually, in pairs, in groups, and in virtual settings. The course aims to refine pronunciation and intonation while cultivating conversational skills that foster positive interpersonal relationships. Course materials will come from textbook dialogues, podcasts, films, and audiobooks.

This class is designed to both introduce students to working with horses and provide guidelines for correct horsemanship with those that have prior experience. It will be unmounted with a focus on interactions with horses from the ground. Topics and activities will provide comfort and familiarity around horses, physical exercise through handling horse and stable tasks, learned movements, mindfulness of one's actions, and contemplation of horse behavior. Students will learn how to engage with horses to hone leadership skills and safe handling.

Plants are arguably the most important and consequential organisms on the planet. The origin of plants over 450 million years ago profoundly altered the terrestrial landscape. The incredible array of plant lineages that exist today are united by the fundamental cellular and developmental mechanisms that enable their survival. We will explore major themes in plant biology, including structure-function relationships, evolution and adaptation, and the co-dependence of humans and plants by working with plants hands-on, using the botanic garden collections and the campus living laboratory.
