Students on a geology trip for Superior Connections

Our environmental ethic is woven throughout the curriculum, including Sustainable Business, Introduction to Environmental Studies, Sustainable Agriculture, a Physics course in Renewable Energy, and Natural Resources. Students have created capstone projects hosting a regional conference on organic farming and developed action plans to increase local foods in our cafeteria. We are designing liberal education programs that focus on multidisciplinary, experiential learning. In fall of 2007, the first Superior Connections students began studying geology, biology, religion, and writing, and other liberal arts courses through the lens of the Lake Superior watershed.
