Summer 2025

Summer LASA introduces students to water histories, present concerns, and future planning for a thriving LA. We’ll spend time getting to know one another and talking with experts in water management and history. Where does your water come from? How can we continue to get better at ensuring access and safety? We invite you to consider the questions you have about water to prepare for our time together.
