In order to be more inclusive, I have changed the name of this group
to "Sustainability in Faith-Based Higher Education." This results in a
new e-mail address to post discussions (please refer to the bottom of
the message for the new address).
A few of us* organized a faith-based networking session at the AASHE
conference earlier this week. Over 80 people came to the meeting,
representing schools based in many different faith backgrounds! The
room was loud and lively with discussion.
We thought this online group could serve to expand the discussion
beyond the current group of Catholic institutions, since many of the
issues we need to discuss are rooted in connecting "sustainability" to
the mission of the university, regardless of specific faith of the
university.
Hope this is ok with our current members. Please e-mail me
(
lcro...@scu.edu) or reply to this thread if you have any comments.
Cheers,
Lindsey Cromwell Kalkbrenner
