Has the institution chosen a sustainability-related theme for its themed semester, year, or first-year experience during the past three years?:
A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:
The New Zealand semester program is an interdisciplinary off-campus program with an emphasis in environmental studies. New Zealand's unique biogeography, progressive land management policies, and cultural dynamics make it an ideal location to examine the complexity and interrelatedness of environmental problems and challenges. With a combination of academic coursework and experiential field study, the program immerses students in the landscapes and communities of New Zealand's north and south islands.
Environmental Semester is an integrated first year experience in environmental studies and science incorporating academics, residential living, and a field experience. http://www.earlham.edu/environmental-semester
