Student Web Projects

As part of the ENST 377 class the students have a final collaborative project. We decided to have these projects posted as web sites so that others could see this work. These projects represent different views about the Mississippi River and its natural history, human history, and cultural history. The projects are great resources for anyone interested in learning more about the mighty Mississippi.

Below we have listed the web site projects for 2001. We hope you like these projects. Please report any problems or comments about the web projects to Dr. T.R. Kidder.
