PHI 195.I1 - Nature in U.S. Thought: Wild America (CRN 10932)

A hands-on learning experience: students canoe, walk, and/or bike to explore the Genius Preserve near campus (the last undeveloped Winter Park lands) and other local nature settings. We’ll examine and discuss foundational U.S. texts, films, and archives to understand the role of ‘nature’ in U.S. culture, ethos, and national identity.
