Pitzer College Professor 艾玛·斯蒂芬斯

Dr. 艾玛·斯蒂芬斯
经济学教授

“I love teaching my agricultural economics class. It’s community based and really shows students how what they learn in class can be used in the ‘real world.’ Huerta del Valle, a community garden and farm, is considering planting avocado trees. I had my students investigate how long each tree would take to grow, cost to plant and maintain, and how much they could make in avocado sales.”

Pitzer College Professor 布莱恩·基利

Dr. 布莱恩·基利
Professor of 哲学

“I team-teach a course on the ‘哲学 of Technology’ with Pomona professor Laura Perini. In one fun class, we explore doorknobs as a technology. 学生 are surprised to learn that doorknobs have a history and that we can spend an entire class talking about their social implications. When we move from doorknobs to digital passwords, they see that more contemporary phenomenon in a new light.”
