Environmental Studies Summer Youth Institute
ESSYI offers a two-week, interdisciplinary program for talented high-school students entering their junior and senior years. The program is designed as an introduction to a variety of environmental issues and perspectives on nature and our environment. You will spend time: on a 65ft. research vessel, in streams, quaking bogs, the Adirondack Mountains, and the Colleges science laboratories. Working in the field, in laboratories, in classrooms, and on a four-day camping trip, you will explore a range of topics in environmental policy, economics, and ethics, and come to see the world through the eyes of artists, historians, philosophers, and scientists.
