Louisiana Field Seminar
With its rich history, romanticized literary image, incredible biological and geological resources and pressing environmental and policy challenges, a field seminar to the Gulf of Mexico coast adds an exciting dimension to the Williams-Mystic experience.

You will speak to shrimp fishermen and alligator wranglers. You steam down the Mississippi River on the stern-wheeler Natchez, seeing Mark Twain's river of yesteryear and the overwhelming industry and commerce along its banks today. You will canoe deep into Louisiana marshes and be guided through alligator –haunted bayous on a pontoon boat.
Incredibly complex environmental and policy issues reflect the ever-changing face of the Mississippi River Delta and the Gulf Coast, and are fundamentally intertwined with the literature and history of Louisiana. Experience the land and the people of Louisiana first-hand with Williams-Mystic.
