1. Overview

   • Resources on Place and Space.  Developed by Bruce Janz, Associate Professor of Philosophy and Interdisciplinary Studies, Augustana University College in Alberta, Canada.  An excellent, well-maintained site on discipline-specific resources and topics, with an extensive bibliography.  Great site to begin your research.

2. Indian Peoples of the Palouse and associated links

   • Schitsu'umsh (Coeur d'Alene Indians). While still under construction, this site offers a wealth of oral traditions as told by Lawrence Aripa, Bingo SiJohn, and Richard Mullen; introduced and reflected upon by Cliff SiJohn.

   • Nimíipuu (Nez Perce Indians).  Features over 5 1/2 hours of interviews with some 33 Nimíipuu elders and consultants on issues deemed relevant by the tribe.  Of interest are the contrasting ways the Clearwater River is viewed from the perspective of Nimíipuu oral traditions and is described as recorded in the journals of Lewis and Clark.

   • An article in the Spokesman-Review (10/13/02) on the Bike path cleanup assailed

   • An article in the Spokesman-Review  (10/21/02) on the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes

3. The Prejudice Against Country People, an article by Wendell Berry on the Progressive's website

5. John Shaw's Humanities Site,  the University Aberdeen website where fellow "humanists" can see and print out all or part of the 30 page field guide that the Scottish students are using on their trip, especially since they are going to some of the places we went to, i.e. Scablands.  From the link listed here, just click on the Changing American West Field Course.  The guide put together by Jon Shaw in Part Two:The Pacific Northwest, pages 9-23 is Jon's fascinating take on the region. I recommend especially his discussion on "our" Northwestern sense of place, page 9 on.  Part Three has a description of the three group projects the students will be doing next week. And Part One, Course Aims, Content, etc. should be of interest to Walter and others for our course next Spring. Part Four provides a good listing of info sources, maps, text and websites. So, something for everyone and should enliven any discussions with faculty and students alike when they are here next week.   From Gundars.
6. A Sense of Place - Talk at Princeton University.  From Rula
