It\'s just maddening that Dr. Fae Dremock, who teaches unique classes like this, is among the faculty who are being cut. How short-sighted that decision was, not only for her and the environmental humanities and the whole ENVS department, but for all the other teachers who are fostering this kind of engaged, critical work, the students who have benefited from them, and the future of our society and planet.
