Environmental Theory

This course is an exploration into the theoretical undertones and overarching “big green words” framing the field of Environmental Studies. Through a combination of intellectual inquiry and on-the-ground field research in Southern Oregon, we explored a diverse array of theories and applications. My experience in this class preserved on this site, from my weekly reflective posts, my synthesizing portfolio, my two projects linked below, and this fed of  what my classmates are writing about!

Projects:

Do Fallen Tress Build Character? Postlapsarian Knowledge in a Post-Logging Town

Better Big Words: Theory, a Final Project

About Me

I am graduating from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon with a BA in English and Environmental Studies. I explore the power stories have to render and transform places, people, and systems. Through my undergraduate scholarship, I aim to better articulate the relationships between humanity and place by examining lessons from the humanities, social sciences, and physical sciences in conversation.
