In May, Jason Hamilton will be teaching ENVS 142-The Art and Science of Tracking, a 3-credit field-based course combining modern ecology with the skills and knowledge-base of the traditional animal tracker. Come learn how to read the landscape and behavior of animals via topics including natural history, clear print track ID, track aging, and gait analysis.

During the June Session, Jason will teach ENVS 140, introducing students to the principles of herbal medicine in the Western herbalist tradition. The 3-credit class will explore conceptual models in modern Western medicine and in vitalist medical traditions, and will focus on experiential learning that covers intensive plant ID, ethical harvesting and wild-crafting techniques.
