Make-Up Assignment for Assateague National Seashore class trip.

This assignment is due Wednesday, May 10, in class. Late papers will not be accepted.

For this assignment, please review the management plans for Assateague, particularly the Administrative History and the Long Range Interpretive Plan. Both documents are available as PDF files at the following webpage: http://www.nps.gov/asis/parkmgmt/index.htm

After you have read these two documents, as well as any others on the Assateague webpage that help give you the necessary context (depending upon how much you already know about Assateague), please write me a 2-3 page paper in which you analyze the human management of Assateague in light of course texts such as "Organic Machine" and "The Green Revolution." Please use quotes from the management plans in making your case - I don't want you to write a paper purely based on what you can generally know from casual thought.
