ENVI 236 - TamingNature:Farming thru Time
Credits: 4
Since the dawn of our species we lived as hunter-gathers. Only recently humans took control of their destiny by taming plants, animals, and even the climate. This course covers the long-term trajectory of farming since the Pleistocene through the modern era. Case studies will be examined from around the globe. Readings are garnered from archaeology, climatology, history, and anthropology. The primary goals of this course are to think about the long-term impacts humans have made on the earth and how farming in-turn shapes human cultures. Students will critically assess lessons from the past and apply them to modern issues. only.

ENVI 348 - Ruins: Abandoned Remembered
Credits: 4
Every place has ruins: falling down houses, overgrown parks, crumbling pasts. Rust belt cities like Binghamton become defined by empty factories and warehouses that reflect US deindustrialization and local economic hardship. Ruins remind of community history and individual joys or hardships. Ruins also often have toxic legacies that poison land and water. They serve as anchors for community identity and yet present challenges for local decision makers: Demolish these sites? Repurpose them? This class examines ruins culturally and environmentally in the classroom as well as through interviews with Broome County residents about local industrial ruins. Prerequisites: ENVI 101 and ENVI 201. only.

ENVI 362 - Biodivers. as Ecosyst. Service
Credits: 4
Flood prevention, climate regulation, soil formation, and nutrient cycling are examples of ecosystem services provided by biodiversity. In this class, students learn to ecologically calculate biodiversity and to examine the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem function, and how these functions translate (or not!) into ecosystem services. Classes will include case studies, group work, reading of primary literature and field trips to examine the role of biodiversity in natural and human modified spaces. We will also consider biodiversity through a social justice lens. A final student project will focus on drivers of biodiversity change and potential consequences. Prerequisites: ENVI 101 and ENVI 201. only.

Classwork will be done in groups to mimic the real world work environment. A final project will allow students to design a research proposal for potential future investigation as an undergraduate, a graduate student, or simply a curious citizen. Students will regularly travel between campus and Nuthatch Hollow. Pre-requisites: ENVI 101 and ENVI 201. only.

ENVI 410 - Sust Comm 2: Policy & Practice
Credits: 4
Building on ENVI 400, students will continue to critically examine sustainability issues, particularly at the local level, though a series of cases. The case studies will push students to explore how coupled human-environmental systems can endure in the face of global change, ecosystem degradation, and resource limitations. This course will focus on key knowledge areas of sustainability theory and practice including: scale, population, climate, urbanization, ecosystems, energy, land use, natural resources, hazards, economics, management, ethics, and culture. Through spatial analysis, measures of sustainable development will also be investigated. Rigorous analysis will be translated into policy memos, white papers, and presentations that explain options and build a case for policy action.

ENVI 426 - Evolution and Sustainability
Credits: 4
This course provides an introduction to evolutionary concepts relevant to biological and human social sustainability. Evolutionary training is essential because: a) the genetic evolution of nonhuman species takes place on ecological time scales; and b) human cultural change is also an evolutionary process. A single set of evolutionary principles can therefore be applied to both the natural and human components of coupled natural and human systems. The course will use the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals to focus on the most important aspects of sustainability.

It examines how these drivers impact ecosystems locally and around the world with an emphasis on how to detect changes. In addition to in-class discussions of scientific literature in ecosystem ecology and global change, students will work in groups to conduct research projects examining experimental modification of global change. Integrated lecture and field/laboratory work focuses on learning experimental techniques, data analysis, and future actions to reduce ecological impacts. Restriction: Junior or Senior Standing. Pre-requisites: ENVI 101 and ENVI 201. only.

GEOG 353 - Crime Location & Society
Credits: 4
Ecological approaches to studying crime have been around since the 1800s when researchers first began establishing the link between geography and crime. These approaches attempt to explain why crime is concentrated in certain areas by analyzing the geographic attributes of the area (to include the influence of socio-economic factors). This course provides students with a solid foundation for analyzing crime through this geographic perspective via lectures and labs. Course lectures will cover the history, theories, trends, developments, and biases in criminal activity. Labs for the course involve the use of contemporary tools and technologies (GIS) found to be essential in the analysis of crime. Prerequisites: GEOG 260 or any other lower-level GIS course, or permission of the instructor/department. Offered once a year.

GMAP 483E - War&Displacement:ModernAfrica
Credits: 4
Warfare and displacement have significantly shaped African history since the nineteenth century, whether in the form of expanding states, proselytizing religions, migrating refugees or the development of novel cultures and forms of specialized knowledge. At the same time, the past two centuries have seen an increasing number of internal and external military interventions on the continent, which have been marked by different degrees of success. In this course, students survey the history of the resulting engagements and conflicts from the conquests of Shaka Zulu in nineteenth-century southern Africa and the international campaign against the horrors of the rubber economy in Belgian King Leopold’s Congo to the Rwandan genocide of 1994 and debates over the world community’s ‘Responsibility to Protect’ after 2000. By understanding the changing nature of warfare as well as the evolving experience of refugees in Africa, students will familiarize themselves with key strands in modern African history and gain the necessary knowledge to critically interpret contemporary debates regarding the ethics and politics of humanitarian intervention on and beyond the continent. Drawing on literature in history, international relations, and anthropology, the course will thereby equip you to evaluate the limits and potential of one of the major mechanisms for mass atrocity prevention.

HDEV 380K - Prisoner Writings & Activism
Credits: 4

It will examine how pint@s labeled “common criminals” (e.g., Malcolm X, George Jackson, Piri Thomas, Raul Salinas) as well as those labeled “political prisoners” (e.g., Assata Shakur, Angela Davis, Martin Luther King, Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Fannie Lou Hamer, Lolita Lebron, Cheal) have: (a) been influenced by human rights movements and other pint@s inside and outside the U.S. (e.g., Fidel Castro, Nelson Mandela, Albizu Campos), and, (b) how they have, in turn, inspired and energized the activism of such movements and contributed to the development of their ideologies and praxis. Required videos (documentaries, films, news programs, and other visual sources) will complement required readings and class discussions.TOPICS IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT. Offered: semester offered varies.
