At our Fairhaven
New Student Retreat we will be discussing
the issues surrounding the Makah Nation's
gray whale hunt. We have mailed readings to
new students.

Last year Stan
Tag (poet and fellow nature lover). Katie
Davidson (Fairhaven senior), Gloria Ruyle
and I taught a 15 credit course for first
year students this fall entitled "Exploring
Our Place on the Planet." The course
was field oriented, including a camping trip
on Orcas Island, a visit to the Makah Indian
Nation, an overnight trip to Vancouver and
weekly all day trips to natural and cultural
sites. It satisfied 3 Fairhaven core class
requirements. It's the type of hands-on teaching
we love to do!
In other news:
I can't stand to have a web site without pics
of my wonderful family -my partner Susie,
Owen (3) and Maggie (3 months!). Here
is a link to those pics.
