Bestselling author and journalist Michael Pollan visited campus Tuesday as part of the college’s Cultural Affairs program.
Prior to an evening lecture before a capacity crowd in the Maureen Stapleton Theatre, Pollan took part in an informal Q&A with students.
In his books, Pollan explores what the industrialization of food and agriculture has meant for our health and happiness as eaters, and looks at the growing national movement to renovate the food system.
Among his books are four New York Times bestsellers: Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual; In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto; The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals and The Botany of Desire: A Plant’s-Eye View of the World.
