Clarkson is a friendly campus with a supportive atmosphere. Professors are accessible to students. Teaching and advising receive high priority. Our program and campus are small and friendly, but there is serious and important work to be done here across the environmental spectrum. If our program draws its inspiration from any one source it is Aldo Leopold, a forester, ecologist, philospher, writer, and policy maker who is famous for his book, A Sand County Almanac .
