Lamont laments fading interest in Barnard nature sanctuary
Dr Corliss Lamont, Columbia philosophy professor and noted humanist, warns Barnard and Columbia students show little enthusiasm for the Lamont Nature Sanctuary atop the Palisades. The 23 acre site, leased by Columbia from the Nature Conservancy, offers waterfalls, cliffs, and trails but lacks active use by students and faculty. The sanctuary, near Palisades Interstate Park, is accessible by Nyack bus or car, and remains open to the public for recreation and study.
