Event Description
Every region of the United States is seeking a sustainable pattern of growth. Angela C. Halfacre, in "A Delicate Balance: Constructing a Conservation Culture in the South Carolina Lowcountry", uses interdisciplinary methods to show how growing numbers of Lowcountry South Carolina residents have sought to sustain and conserve the rapidly growing region’s distinctive sense of place including its fragile ecology, natural beauty, and traditional land-based livelihoods.
Angela C. Halfacre teaches in the departments of Earth and Environmental Sciences and Political Science at Furman University, and serves as the director of Furman’s David E. Shi Center for Sustainability. Before returning to Furman, her alma mater, in 2008, she spent 10 years at the College of Charleston as a political science professor and director of the graduate program in Environmental Studies. |
