Cultural Ecology — Cultural ecology is the study of the adaptation of human societies or populations to their environments, emphasizing the arrangements of technique, economy, and social organization through which culture mediates the experience of the natural world.
Diachronic Study — A diachronic study is one that includes an historical or evolutionary time dimension.
Ecosystem Approach/Model — This is an approach used by some ecological anthropologists that focuses on physical components. Moran (1990:3) claims that this view uses the physical environment as the basis around which evolving species and adaptive responses are examined. The ecosystem approach had played a central role within ecological anthropology.
Environmental Determinism — A deterministic approach assigns one factor as the dominant influence in explanations.

Seven Excuses Not to Go to College
Think college is for other kids, and not for you？ Wrong. Don't give up on college before you take a good look at it.
One. "I can't go to college — nobody in my family has ever gone."
In every family, someone has to be first. Why not you？ True, being first can be hard. On the other hand, being first is likely to be a source of pride, for you and your family.
Two. "I've been in school for 12 years. That's enough! I just want a good job."
Give college a chance. It's not like high school or junior high. For one thing, in college you pick a major — a subject area that you want to learn about. As for that good job — the best jobs and the best salaries go to college grads.
Three. "I can't go to college because I can't afford it."
Most students get financial aid to help pay for college, and most aid is based on need. This means that the less money you have, the more aid you might get.
Four. "I can't go because I don't know how to apply or where I want to go."
Tell your high school counselors you want to go to college fairs, where colleges introduce themselves to students. Ask them how to write to schools for information. Try to visit colleges that interest you. Keep at it. After a while, you'll get a feel for differences among colleges, and start to know what you want.
Five. "I can't go to college — I don't know what I want to do with my life."
Join the crowd. Thousands of college freshmen haven't decided on a major or on a career. That's how college helps. It exposes you to all sorts of subjects you've never heard of before. College is a great place to learn more about careers you'll love for life.
Six. "I can't go to college, because I just won't fit in."
Not so. Most colleges have students from many backgrounds. Homesick？ Need a hand？ Look for people with your interests or your background in the African-American club, on the soccer field, or in a Korean study group. Remember, college is a great place to meet new kinds of people with different lifestyles. And the more people you understand and feel comfortable with, the better prepared you'll be for the world after college.
Seven. "College is too hard for me."
Not you, too! Most students worry about being good enough for college, so you're not alone. One idea: In high school, don't just study — learn how to study. Most good students have strategies for studying. Once you learn how to study, chances are you'll do fine. Still need help？ Professors are really helpful, and so are the tutors.
When you are considering colleges, you usually have already studied for

Father's Stroke Leaves Loving Son Feeling Guilty
Dear Harlan,
My father recently had a stroke. When I heard the news, I went to see him and my family right away. I live in California, and they live in Canada. lie is recovering slowly. My mom is with him at the hospital every day making sure that he is getting the therapy and help when he needs. But she is having a hard time emotionally and financially. It's like a nightmare that won't end.
I have a good job here in a band that relies on me. I don't have the money to keep flying there, and my job won't permit me to take more than two days off a week. I feel like quitting everything and being with him and my Mom. I am newly married, which makes the situation hard.
Should I move back home？
Struggling
Dear Struggling,
Listen, you're not being fair to yourself. If you move, you're going to feel guilty because you've abandoned your band, your job and uprooted your new spouse (and both of your lives). If you don't move back home, you're going to feel guilty because you're not there to help. Either way, you're bound to feel guilty. At least live where you can be happy and guilty.
When you cut through all the emotions, your life is not in Canada. Your mom is at home for your dad. Be there to support her (and him) by calling and visiting as much as possible. Make sure your mom knows that you're trying to balance it all and help. Guide her toward emotional support. If necessary, take a part-time job on days off to help pay for more visits home. Just avoid abandoning your life, hopes and dreams. No parent would want that.
Harlan
