Julianne Lutz (Newton) Warren is a 1988 graduate of Ithaca College's

for those with English as a second language. Her next degree was in 
Environmental Science concerned with nesting success of grassland birds 
in fragmented habitats. Her doctorate concerned the intellectual

recently published as "Aldo Leopold's Odyssey" with considerable, 
positive review. Julianne implements these values as President of the 
Board of the John Burroughs Institute and she writes widely about the
