Class of 2016 | DS website
I am a student of Environmental Studies and Economics at Lewis & Clark College, with a background in design. I am interested in cities as systems and the role of urban amenities in their development. In particular, my thesis research considers the multifaceted role of the urban forest in shaping cities. I am extremely enthusiastic about data and the perspectives contributed by different ways to analyze it.

Class of 2017 | DS website
I am a third year student at Lewis & Clark studying Rhetoric & Media and minoring in Gender Studies. My studies have centered around how humans rhetorically construct their realities and place social meaning collectively that influence the ways in which we experience the world. I am particularly interested in how people, societies, and cultures understand and construct and place meaning on gender. I enjoy reading, meeting and learning from new people, sharing meals with loved ones, and spending as much time outside in nature.

Class of 2017 | DS website
My name is Ajna Weaver. I am in perpetual awe. I am currently a Rhetoric & Media Studies major and Environmental Studies minor at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, OR. Combining these fields, I am interested in exploring the ways people talk (or don’t talk) about the socio-ecological contexts our lives are woven within. My research interests are vast, so please explore my site to see the various projects and courses I have devoted my energy to. No matter what I am exploring, I am passionate about integrating creative expression and artistic, alternative outcomes into my academic work. I am constantly changing and embrace dialogue in that process. Let's converse!

Hi! I have lived my whole life in a small town outside Boston. I love my parents and my sister very much. I am an ENVS major at Lewis & Clark and I hope to get involved with law or policymaking somewhere down the line. Even though I love dogs, I have only ever had two pets and they were both gerbils. Interests include: playing, making, and listening to music; hiking, tele skiing, climbing and dancing.

Drew Williamson
Class of 2017 | DS website
My ENVS major has focused on studying various modes of transportation in urban settings and how they relate to our society. Some of my key interests include questions centered on environmental impact, social equity (who has the right to the city?) and personal/urban identity within global and local scales. My research has aimed to create a better understanding of how cities of all shapes and sizes can improve (or detract from) themselves through the development and implementation of transportation infrastructure.

Class of 2018 | DS website
As an Environmental Studies major at Lewis & Clark College, I spent my academic career examining community, outreach, and isolation. With a particular focus on intentional communities and the built, urban environment, I developed an understanding of these large and relevant ideas through various projects, most notably, my thesis. I will move forward from this institution with a passion for how to transgress differences in order to achieve environmental progress through communication.

From the sun and into the storm-- I flew to Portland from my home in Maui to ruffle my feathers and earn my colors. As a student at Lewis and Clark College I am studying Environmental Studies and French while on my way towards manifesting a better and brighter future for all. I've always been inspired by the impending storm-- now that I'm here, let's just hope Portland never runs out of rain.

I have had a deep interest in the world of environmental studies for as long as I can remember; environmental activism and policy are particularly intriguing to me. My engagement in these fields began in the non-academic world, yet I aim to explore these issues more deeply with an academic mindset.

I am a third-year student of Sociology/Anthropology and Environmental Studies at Lewis & Clark College. My scholarly questions are undetermined. Find me and I'll probably be eating some home-cooked gnosh, playing in the out-of-doors world, making music, geckoed onto a rock wall, or deep in thought with a good book in a cozy chair while the rain pitter-patters outside -- because this is Portland, Oregon, of course!

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. We’d like to honor four graduating seniors in particular—Lex Shapiro, Jesse Simpson, Hannah Smay, and Drew Williamson—who successfully completed all requirements for honors […]

Environmental Engagement: Bridging Thought and Action

There’s a new course in the ENVS major effective spring 2017: it’s called Environmental Engagement (ENVS 295)—read the About page on our new site, ds.lclark.edu/envs295/, for an overview. When I reflected at the start of spring semester on what environmental engagement means, I looked at the etymology of engagement to suggest three key features: Here is one rather […]

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 […]

Digital Scholarship Websites: A Scholarly Journal

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. Three ENVS class of 2017 seniors, Marielle Bossio, Perri Pond, and Kara Sherer, have gone the […]

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 […]
