Villanova English Majors and Faculty Speak Up at Climate Change Town Hall

Thanks to everyone who came out for the Climate Change Town Hall in the Connelly Cinema on Friday. The event, co-sponsored by the Student Government Association, the Faculty Congress, the Staff Council, and the Sustainability Leadership Council, featured a panel of speakers, including Villanova English professor Dr. Jean Lutes, followed by a Q&A. Speakers discussed the carbon emission reduction goals in Villanova's Strategic Plan and the steps that Villanova would need to take to develop a campus sustainability plan in line with our peer institutions.

See here for a recording of the event. You can also add your name to the petition calling on the university to make a stronger commitment to sustain.
