Description
This semester, this section of HON 250 has explored the interconnection between water chemistry, infrastructure and environmental justice through the lens of what happened with the Flint, MI water crisis. Students have conducted individual water chemistry projects, where they have investigated water quality on the JCCC campus using readily available water test strips, which contain 16 different water analysis experiments. Students will present a compiled poster highlighting each of their questions and their results of their explorations. Results and analysis will include why people should care about the quality of their water and what to do if someone suspects their water is compromised.
