Trip Expectations

Before I embark on this experience to New Orleans I have thought a lot about what I expect to get out of this. For starters, my goal is to just make a difference within the environment and society. If I can help at least one person directly while I’m in New Orleans then that would bring an immense amount of joy to me. Another thing I want to do is to be able to see how different their niche is both from a sociological and environmental standpoint. I’m even curious how their ecosystem system is. I am not an ESRM student but I am excited to put myself in a different standpoint. Addendum, I am really intrigued to see how all the concepts we learned in class come to life when we attend this trip. It isn’t often that we (the students) get to take the information/concepts we are taught in these books and powerpoints while being able to apply them in a real life.
