Sustainability Reflection
Throughout my years at Dickinson College as an Environmental Science major, my understanding of sustainability has evolved from a simple ecological definition to a much more holistic view. This is short reflection on the meaning of the word "sustainability" and how that has changed for me during the past four years. It was written as a portion of the Barid Colloquim, a course asociated with a honor I recieved my senior year. Follow this link for further inofmration about the honor.
