"Through Wilderness and Civilization I have gained
a vast knowledge of the natural world, communities, society,
and many issues involving the environment. From Native
Americans to gardening to environmental regulation, I
now have a strong understanding of many processes facing
the world today. The program planted seeds about how I'd
like to live in the future."
~Andrew Henry, Denver, Colorado
