Classes and Student Led Projects


The SLC offers interdisciplinary classes and training in agroecology, organic gardening, alternative energy, and sustainability education. Students and faculty work closely in both the classroom and the field. Classes from any department on campus are welcome to use the SLC. In addition, student led projects are encouraged as a location for students to gain experience and apply their academic learning through experiential design and testing of their ideas.
