Class of 2017 | DS website

Hey there, I'm Perri! I am a fourth year environmental studies major, with a concentration on land use in the American West. During the fall of 2015, I studied abroad in Tanzania. I am also an alumnus of the Tatoosh School, a field school in southeast Alaska. In my spare time I enjoy playing soccer, bouldering, hiking and cooking and eating a delicious meal.

Digital Scholarship Websites: A Scholarly Journal | April 4, 2017

Designing and creating a scholarly website is a skill that environmental studies majors are taught during their second semester in the program. It can be tedious and difficult to constantly work on and baby the site to meet professional expectations.

Situating Environment, Imagining Worlds: ENVS Honors Theses 2017

We are proud of all nineteen graduating ENVS seniors this year: they were a great bunch of students to work with over the last four years, and grew tremendously during this time.

Art, Technology, and Hope in the Anthropocene

ENVS Program seniors take two semesters to complete a capstone project. The options for what students can study are limitless, as are their outcomes: some produce a thesis (see here for spring 2017 honors theses), while others produce alternative outcomes. As two examples of the latter, Marielle Bossio and Kara Scherer audaciously push the boundaries […]

Grass and Concrete: Built Environments Overseas

Does the phrase “built environment” strike you as odd? When thinking about the word “environment,” does your brain conjure up images of sweeping meadows and lush green forests? Consider this: Cities provide a habitat, of sorts, for billions of people worldwide. Many different species live in and interact with human-built spaces, just as many different […]

The Best of Times and the Worst of Times: Struggling to Complicate Environmentalism

This past Monday, I began my internship at Environment Oregon, Oregon’s largest environmental non-profit. I imagine this sentence will set off many red flags for anyone involved in the ENVS Program at Lewis and Clark; after all, the name practically oozes classical environmentalism and oversimplification. I actually am very excited about my internship despite this. Admittedly, this is mostly because […]
