Hello all - please forward to people you think are interested in getting an environmental grad degree at Evergreen in Olympia. We are still accepting apps for Fall 2013. The program is at night, making it easier for Tacoma residents! The Graduate Program on the Environment at The Evergreen State College<http://www.evergreen.edu/mes/> is a unique, interdisciplinary program in Olympia, Washington that will enter its 30th year in Fall 2013. Students use natural and social sciences to study and solve environmental problems through required core courses, electives, internships, independent study, and a required thesis. Graduates go on to work in government, policy, natural resources, nonprofits, environmental education, and sustainable business. The two-year program is made for experiential learners-classes are in the evenings leaving time for jobs, internships, and volunteer experiences. We recognize that the best environmental solutions come from a wide variety of perspectives--that is why we accept all majors, and why our students, who come to us from across the US and abroad, represent a wide range of ages, cultures and expertise. Classes at Evergreen are credit/no credit, and narrative evaluations are used in place of grades to assess performance, reflecting both student and faculty assessment of learning. In addition, the faculty to student ratio is 15:1; so students may gain full access to faculty expertise. Students earn a Master of Environmental Studies (MES) upon completion. The program offers a variety of scholarships and tuition waivers to qualified students, including AmeriCorps alumni. We are currently accepting applications for Fall 2013. For more information, please go to www.evergreen.edu/mes<http://www.evergreen.edu/mes/>. AmeriCorps alumni receive an application fee waiver. Please contact Gail Wootan at wootang@evergreen.edu<mailto:wootang@evergreen.edu> for fee waiver instructions. Thanks! Gail Wootan, M.Ed.
