Campus Biodiversity
The ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº Campus Biodiversity initiative is based in the Biology department at ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº College in Santa Barbara, California, but is very much a collaborative endeavor of faculty, staff, students and neighbors.
With this website, we hope to...
...provide increasingly refined information on campus biodiversity (we still have a long way to go).
...share tips on where you might have the best chances of seeing any given species on campus.
...share engagement with campus species by campus poets and artists.
...provide a resource for students pursuing independent projects for classes or research on campus.
...foster greater awareness and affection for the other creatures with whom we share our campus.
All photos, videos, and audio recordings on this site were taken on ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº's campus proper, or in Las Barrancas faculty housing adjacent to campus.​
If you have questions or would like to contribute to the site, please ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº Dr. Amanda Sparkman at sparkman@westmont.edu.
