<br><br><div>Hello Kelsey and Alanna,</div><div>If this fits with things you're willing to send across your group's listserv, I would appreciate the chance to advertise my summer class to your membership. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about this class, and Kelsey, you'll be happy to know we've taken many of your suggestions into account for the relaunch of this class. Thank you for thoughtful evaluations of what we can do better.</div>
<div> -jesse</div><div> </div><div>-----------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div>Hello,</div><div>I am advertising an exciting, field-based course on the environmental history of the Santa Cruz River. This 3-week class will explore how the effects of changing climate, settlement of the Tucson basin, economic changes and a variety of other factors have created the Santa Cruz we live with today. About half the class meetings are field trips to sites like Tumacacori National Monument, the Bureau of Reclamation, an Audubon ecological restoration site, Nogales AZ, downtown Tucson, and beyond. </div>
<div>Attached is a course flier for this class. Please distribute to interested Tierra Seca members</div><div> </div><div>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</div>
<div>GEOG 455: Advanced Regional Study (Environmental History of the Santa Cruz River)<br>The Santa Cruz River is a dry wash, except for times of flood and the water that we deliberately put into the riverbed. The Santa Cruz has a complex environmental history, with competing uses for its water, both historically and today. Multiple off-campus field trips expose students to various locations along the course of the Santa Cruz River where they will experience river restoration, urban redevelopment, artificial flows, and the effects of centuries of alterations to this riparian system. Readings are drawn from a variety of sources, including newspaper articles, scholarly articles, and book excerpts.</div>
