NEW: Blue Sky Brainstorm: Envisioning Sustainability for the Five Colleges and Beyond

The Five College Board of Directors invites suggestions, ideas, or fully developed proposals for new and improved sustainability initiatives.

Everyone is welcome to brainstorm ideas for incorporating sustainability into the campuses, the Five College consortium and the community. No idea is too big—or small!

To submit an idea, visit the Five College Sustainability Ideas website.

A variety of Five College sustainability studies programs and services now offer additional opportunities and support for students who want to study the impact of humans on the environment. Current initiatives include a Five College lecture series, a website listing available courses and programs, a proposal for a Five College certificate in sustainability studies and affiliated faculty members, and an investigation into a possible Five College food and agriculture summer institute, located at Hampshire Farm.

For more information, read the recent article about Five College sustainability initiatives in the Five College Ink magazine.

In September 2010, Beth Hooker joined Five Colleges, Incorporated as their first Sustainability Programs Coordinator. Since then, she has worked collaboratively on the FC sustainability studies certificate program, led an initiative to explore the feasibility of a FC Food and Agriculture Institute, located at Hampshire Farm, and sought funding for various sustainability initiatives.
