Sulerud "Scientific creationists" revive the argument against the theory of evolution, and a debate i s held a t the University of Minnesota. A book i s published claiming the production of a cloned human, b u t the developmental biologists react negatively. Farmers engage in verbal (and sometimes physical ) battle with environmentalists over the "endangered" status of wolves in Minnesota. A nobel 1 aureate argues the genetic inferiority of blacks and geneticists reply. The popular press abounds in a r t i c l e s relating to controversies related to biology. There are disputes between biologists and others as well as sharp disagreements among biologists. Several of the issues will be considered in t h i s course including the following: Evolution; genetic engineering ( e .g. , cloning, recombinant DNA); abortion; eugeEics and racism; 1 i f e on other planets and the environmentalist movement. Readings wi 11 be assigned and topics will be introduced by the instructors. There will be ample time f o r discussion and a number of guests will be invited to participate. As time and arrangements allow, a few f i e l d t r i p s may be taken. Students will concentrate on one topic as the basis of an oral ( i f possible) or written report. Eva1 uation will be based on the report, an examination relating to the topics considered, and class discussions.
