"Environmental problems are really social problems. They begin with people as the cause, and end with people as victims. They are usually born of ignorance and apathy. It is people who create a bad environment and a bad environment brings out the worst in people. Man and nature need each other, and by hurting one we wound the other......"

Sometimes it's easier to connect with students if they know a little about the teacher as a person. On this page I'll tell my class a little about myself (e.g., my hobbies and interests, how I first became interested in my subject), as well as including more practical information like how to get in touch with me, when I hold office hours, my e-mail address, and my phone number.

I might also include lists of such things as my favorite books or movies, music I enjoy, and so on. And I'll be sure to include a picture, just in case any students forget what I look like!
