Roundtable to explore state of sustainability on campus

An upcoming roundtable discussion moderated by Dr. Jameson Chace, associate professor in the Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, and Dr. Theresa Ladrigan-Whepley, vice president for mission integration, will explore the state of environmental sustainability on campus.

Salve Regina adopted environmental sustainability goals in 2006, and every year the campus community gathers to reflect on its progress towards achieving those goals. Students, staff and faculty all bring important perspectives, knowledge of best practices, and observations of key problem areas that enable us to address our critical concern for the earth through improved stewardship practices.

Join this roundtable discussion to become better informed about the latest policies and practices, and bring your own sustainable development ideas, hopes and visions to the table.

The roundtable discussion will be held at 11:45 a.m. Tuesday, April 16 in the O’Hare Academic Building, Room 242. Sponsored by the Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy, roundtable discussions are open to Salve Regina students, faculty and staff. The Pell Center provides a free lunch.

As space is limited, those interested in attending should RSVP to (401) 341-2927 or pellcenter@salve.edu.
