Congratulations to our alumni Lev Szentkirályi on his recent book publication.

Dr. Szentkirályi graduated cm laude in Fall 2006 with a B.S. in Environmental Science. He went on to earn his Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Colorado and is currently a teaching faculty member in CU-Boulder’s Program for Writing and Rhetoric and Baker Natural Sciences and the Environmental Residential Academic Program.

In his book (The Ethics of Precaution: Uncertain Environmental Health Threats and Duties of Due Care), which is based on the precautionary principle, Lev explores why it is morally wrong for emitters to release substances into the environment whose health effects are uncorroborated.

For the last service-learning project for Fall 2019, ENVS 1010 students planted trees at Bradner Preserve.

10/24/2019

It was windy and cold but that didn’t stop ENVS 1010 students from completing their service learning requirement.

They helped harvest seeds that will be used next season to restore key areas or to be sold during the Wood County Park District annual native plant sale.
