From December 26th to January 12, the University of North Texas’ Department of Philosophy and Religion Studies will conduct its first field course in the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve. Dr. Kurt Heidinger – OSARA Coordinator of Outreach and UNT Adjunct Professor will lead this direct-encounter nature writing course entitled “Tracing Darwin’s Path.”

The 10 undergraduate and graduate students will travel to Puerto Williams, where they will experience and write about the land that inspired Darwin’s theory of natural selection and was the setting of some of his most formative experiences as a young man.
