Open to students by permission of the Consortium representative, Harold Andrews, Geology Department. Topics include physiology, population biology, life history analysis, molecular genetics, morphology, distributional ecology and social behavior.
Lectures first focus on the biology of cetaceans and how they are adapted to the marine environment.
Subsequent lectures use case studies to review how biological principles can be applied to the conservation of a wide range of cetacean species. One year of general biology and two upper-level biology courses. Open to students by permission of the Consortium representative, Harold Andrews, Geology Department. Intoxication and addiction are the focus of constant attention in the media, in the scholarly press inside and outside of academia, and in the arts. The Law in Literature Kruse Both in literature and in law, language shapes rhetorical worlds which seek to represent, constitute, interpret and criticize the world created and inhabited by human beings.
