About Face the River
What does it mean to live in a city defined by its rivers? What are our responsibilities as a Montpelier resident and an inhabitant of the Winooski watershed? We’ll spend each class outside, exploring aquatic life, investigating geology, examining the effects of erosion and pollution, and following the water as it flows through our natural, cultural, and social landscapes. Along the way, we’ll meet Abenaki leaders, environmental commissioners, city planners, biologists, historians, and many more neighbors whose lives are closely tied to the water. We’ll share in weekly discussions and journaling sessions where we’ll reimagine our relationship with the rivers-as individuals, and as a society. A class unlike any other, you'll finish the semester as experts and leaders on Montpelier's waterways.
