UMACS Conference 2008

April 18-19, 2008

Luther College, Decorah IA

Conference information

Colleges and universities are in a unique position to shift the future of our world. Places of higher education foster the desire for growth and learning, among students as well as faculty and staff. If the education the students receive involves learning about the distinct environmental issues facing our world, as well as the concrete solutions for overcoming the worst problems, they will become leaders of a generation that turns the tide toward a sustainable future.

This education not only comes from the classroom, but from the daily operation of the campus. Every decision a college or university makes can contribute to the sustainable vision with which a student comes away.

This conference is designed to appeal to any and all campus constituents interested in creating a more sustainable campus: students, professors, facilities and maintenance workers, dining services staff, just to name some.

We are hoping to offer workshops and presentations that provide insights and ideas for bringing sustainability to every corner of a college or university.
