"Spirit of the Rockies" is a study of how people’s relationships with nature, each other, and the sacred are connected to the landscape of the Northern Rockies. This is an experiential academic course that will take place along Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front in the Bob Marshall Wilderness. Through reading, facilitated discussions, backpacking, exploring, journaling, self-reflection and community activities, students will investigate how people have developed relationships and meaning within the Rocky Mountain landscape. This course will focus on selected works of literature from different eras of regional history and culture to develop a comparative analysis. Students will assess the assumptions, values and worldviews of each perspective. They will assess current relationships between people, nature and the sacred and articulate the various assumptions, values and worldviews that shape those relationships. Sponsored by Emmaus Campus Ministry and led by John Lund and Peter Metcalf.
Cost: $400-trip & $135 for 2 UM credits. EVST 395 (Honors Option).
OPI Renewal Credit available for Teachers
Trip includes 7 days in the Bob Marshall Wilderness covering about 35 miles on the Rocky Mountain Front. Consent of instructor required.
To register, call John Lund at 396-4974 or email john@montanalcm.org
