Joyce A. Gorn Prize in Environmental Studies, 1979 - 1995

The Environmental Studies curriculum grew out of the academic interests held by particular faculty members. The files found here reflect how faculty incorporated environmental concerns and issues into their courses, as well as developing new courses that specifically related to the environment. Without a permanent tenure-track faculty teaching position in the field of Environmental Studies, ESPC had to develop other paths to enhance the curriculum and promote community awareness. This included visiting scholars teaching mini-courses and a colloquium series of lectures. Also found here are files relating to Winter Term, which further developed an ES program at Oberlin.
