Sustainability Roundtable kicks-off Friday 11am: Campus As A Living Lab

Learn more about sustainability as an investigatory lens at the Sustainability Council’s virtual Roundtables every other Friday at 11am. Students, faculty, staff, and the general public are all encouraged to attend! Each session highlights a different topic and disciplinary perspective, but there is always time set aside to meet others interested in sustainability and to explore possibilities for interdisciplinary collaboration.

The Sustainability Roundtable series kicks-off for the new year on Friday with UofL's Sustainability Coordinator, Dr. Justin Mog, sharing opportunities to use UofL as a living lab of sustainability and his vision of students, faculty & staff collaborating to reshape campus around equity & ecological integrity.
