Martin's D-Plan
What's a D-Plan?-
FallHanover, NH
Favorite Class: BIOL 16: EcologyIn this course, we covered all the basics of ecology: how organisms interact with each other and with their ecosystems. My favorite parts of the class were the labs: they took place outside and we explored ecological concepts around campus!
WinterHanover, NH
Favorite Class: EARS 21: Transforming Energy SystemsThis course was on everything energy: how we use it, how we generate it, and how we can improve our current energy systems in light of climate change. We visited nearby energy systems, including Dartmouth's very own heating and energy facilities. This course was awesome!
