Understanding With Our Feet

In the spring of 2007, radical biologist Ignacio Chapela would lead weekly walks around the Berkeley campus. He used the college as a sort of living museum through which he would explain the history of science, the long connection between the university and the weapons industry, and why scientists try and hide their work, sometimes.

For more about Ignacio, there is good article about him here:
