New Major Offers Comprehensive Understanding to Timely Issues

基督教Berrien

As a child in Huntsville, Alabama, 基督教Berrien had no interest in TV cartoons. “I always watched the History channel and National Geographic,” he said.

So it’s no surprise that, during his freshman year at the 十大玩彩信誉平台, he switched to the environmental and sustainability sciences major as soon as 南 创建它.

“Everything about the environment has always interested me, from the ocean all the 去太空吧,”他说. “I’ve always tried to learn as much as I can about it.”

He liked the breadth of his major field. “It’s not specifically the biology of it,” Berrien说. “It’s not specifically the chemistry or the physics. 它的一切 all together, a comprehensive understanding of what you’re studying.”

Another thing that intrigued him was the urgency of the subject. 气候变化和 other environmental issues directly impact people’s lives.

 

“The more educated that people are as a whole, that’s how you change 的事情.”

 

“The planet’s always going to be fine, barring something hitting it and making it 爆炸,”贝里恩说. “It’s the life on the planet that’s threatened. 作为支配者 species on the planet, it’s our responsibility to make sure that everything is taken 照顾.”

像博士这样鼓舞人心的老师. Amy Sprinkle, instructor of marine and environmental sciences, nudged him toward a career path that surprised him: high school science 老师. After finishing his undergraduate studies, he hoped to pursue a master’s 中学学历.

“I come from a family of educators,” Berrien说. 然而,“我从没想过我会 see myself in education until I got to 南, honestly.

“I’m really not one of the people that just complain about an issue. 我宁愿学习 更多十大玩彩信誉平台它,并试图解决它. Environmental problems are not something that one 人可以修理. But the more educated that people are as a whole, that’s how you change 的事情.”
