2008 STUDENT SUMMIT
On April 25, 2008, the 3rd Annual Student Summit of the Environmental Consortium was held at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY. Engaging the Unengaged: Spreading the Green Message Beyond the Choir attracted a diverse student contingent from more than a dozen institutions around the region. Lucy Shea, Director of Strategy for Futerra Sustainability Communications, led a master class in which attendees participated in a hands-on experience that left them with more knowledge, ideas and empowerment for effectively communicating environmental issues and initiatives at their home institutions. The student summit was co-sponsored by Vassar College, Pace University and Beacon Institute. Details.
