Environmental, Literature, and Culture Students Present at Pebble Hill

Students from Breeden Scholar Tom Hallock's "Environment, Literature, and Culture" class presented excerpts from their work at Pebble Hill yesterday. Throughout the semester, the students visited the Special Collections & Archives Department of the RBD Library, the Donald E. Davis Arboretum, and the John D. Freeman Herbarium. Hallock's students wrote botanical essays reuniting art and science, inspired by the writings of John James Audubon, William Bartram, and Mark Catesby.

We have been fortunate to have Dr. Hallock with us this semester as our 2013 Breeden Scholar!
