To a large extent, the physical form of the habits of the earth’s vegetation and its animal life has been molded by the environment. Considering the whole span of the earthly time, the opposite effect, in which life actually modifies its surroundings, has been relatively slight. Only within the moment of time represented by the present century has one species – man – acquired significant power to alter the nature of the world.” Silent Spring Rachel Carson, Class of 1929 Disclaimer The provisions of this catalog are not to be regarded as an irrevocable contract between the students and Chatham University.
