Ecological Ethics

The College responded to student interest in such areas as food justice, sustainability and environmental values by establishing a humanities concentration in Ecological Ethics. The concentration provides students with a solid foundation — including theoretical and practical, hands-on learning components — in sustainability studies that can be combined with a variety of other majors and minors like agricultural sustainability, environmental science and political science. This concentration is for anyone broadly interested in these topics or for those interested in supplementing another field with a deeper dive into the ethics, culture and philosophy regarding the environment and beyond.
