Mertz Library \nFriday\, February 26\, 2016\n2:00–4:00 p.m.\nMertz Library Reading Room \nPromoting new thinking about today’s rapidly changing societies in increasingly urban environments\, this roundtable will focus on land\, law\, and ecology—encompassing the four elements: air\, earth\, water\, fire.  A team of experts from Fordham University\, including J.

Mellon-sponsored initiative created to connect the botanical arts and sciences in inspiring new ways. Set at the center of the Garden\, the Institute uses the historical landscape and renowned collections of the Mertz Library\, Archives and Herbarium\, as sources for interdisciplinary inquiry.
