Our goal in offering this course is to bring a contextual understanding of the fundamental relationship between professional responsibility and damage wrought by natural disasters. We have chosen Hurricane Katrina, as it is still very relevant today yet sufficient time has passed such that careful analysis of the storm and its aftermath is underway. While the course focuses on the profession of engineering, it is equally as relevant for students entering a vast array of professions. We seek to move students' understanding of the tragic consequences of disasters such as Hurricane Katrina from a purely analytical one to an understanding that can begin to lead to empathy and ultimately compassion. For it is our belief that such compassion can and will lead to more enlightened, courageous future leaders willing to act in the face of imminent threat whatever professions our students decide to pursue.
