For students seeking ways to impact the environment, I (obviously) think that Environmental Planning and Design is a great place to look. The mixing of science and design, people and plants, and large and small makes it especially appealing to those of us who have a hard time working on an isolated subset of a problem. It has both some very long-term and some immediate gratification. It also looks good in the local paper.This weekend the Star-Ledger ran a special section called Outlook, that included an article on college opportunities for students interest in the environment. I am a little disappointed that they only wrote about our LA program and didn't highlight some of the green work our Geomatics and Planning students have pursued. But there are so many stories for them to tell and so few inches of column space.
