Upon signing up for the university colloquium class I had little knowledge on what the class was actually going to be about. I had heard from students who had previously taken the course that it was another class that as and FGCU student we had to take and that it required a lot of writing. I also knew that the class mainly dealt with aspect of the environment and the damage we have done and what we can do to fix it. In my own life, I have had little experience exploring the wilderness. However, the experience that stands out most in my mind would have to be exploring the mountains in Tennessee. During spring break last year I was fortunate enough to take a trip which allowed me to go hiking in a mountainous area in Tennessee. The scenery and animal was absolutely breathtaking because it was as if the area had not been touched by humans. I felt that this gave me a better appreciation of the n
atural world, since I had not had much of a relationship before this time.I think that this class could be very beneficial to my education as well as my life outside of school. Raising awareness of environmental problems and giving suggestions on what we can do to help can only benefit our society and generations to come. The only hesitations I have towards this class is that I have previously taken environmental biology of southwest Florida in which I feel we will be coving some of the same materials. But I feel that having some background knowledge from another class may help to make the concepts cover in this course more concrete. I look forward to learning more about our environment through this class!
