FALL 2018
In the beginning of the class, responding to the theme of biodiversity, students selected one living non-human organism indigenous to the Salish Sea Bioregion to research and inspire their work over the quarter. Each project built upon this original selection and encouraged students to foster relationships with their distinct organisms.
