EDU@1UC: “Conservation, Compassion and Awe in Yellowstone National Park: Environmental Ethics and Human Health”

As part of the EDU@1UC series, the Siegal Lifelong Learning Program will host a lecture by Eileen Anderson-Fye, associate professor in the Department of Bioethics. Anderson-Fye’s lecture is titled “Conservation, Compassion and Awe in Yellowstone National Park: Environmental Ethics and Human Health” and will be held Wednesday, Dec. 11, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the Skylounge at One University Circle.

During this discussion, Anderson-Fye will address how the evolution and psychology of compassion and awe are engaged in processual models of human interaction with the natural world and other species. Both have important implications for human health in everyday behavioral practice and in clinical settings.

The cost for the event is $7 for Lifelong Learning members and $12 for non-members.

Wine (for those 21+) and appetizers are included in price.
