Richard Baer on Religion, Education, and the Public Square
Browse by
Collected here are lectures from the Natural Resources 407 Seminar: "Religion, Ethics and the Environment".
The syllabus for this course, along with short descriptions with links to each lecture, are available at https://confluence.cornell.edu/x/ayo.
These recordings represent three entire semesters and parts of other semesters of NR 407. The content of the lectures is similar, but not identical, from semester to semester, and the student-participation discussions are, of course, different each semester.
The lectures are divided into 3 collections representing each of the semesters.
