Modern conservation efforts discussed in Monday’s LACI lecture
Join us for the fifth installment of the spring Liberal Arts and Critical Issues series this Monday, Feb. 25, in Hoover 105. The theme of this spring’s lecture series is “State of the Union.”
Monday’s session runs from 7 to 8 p.m. and features Dr. Fred Van Dyke, executive director of the Au Sable Institute for Environmental Studies. He will present a lecture titled “Hope and Hopelessness: Overcoming the State of Despair in Modern Conservation,” in which he will argue that, concerning conservation efforts, hope is “not a product of emotional exhortation but a reasoned and confident expectation of an altered future condition relative to present circumstances.”
The same session is presented from 4:40 to 5:40 p.m.; however, it is recommended that the general public attend the evening session, if possible.
