Sustainability @ ND/SMC/HCC and in the Holy Cross Charism

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

This course will address sustainability in the context of the local academic community and its institutions. In conversation with the papal encyclical, Laudato Si’, On Care for Our Common Home, this course will provide students with interdisciplinary opportunities to explore the challenges of sustainability and develop collaborative strategies for making our common campus homes more sustainable. Students will be invited to examine the course materials in conversation with the mission of the Congregation of Holy Cross through immersion at each of the campuses and encounters with professionals whose work impacts sustainability. This course will also include a community-engaged learning component, in which students will volunteer 2 hours/week through the semester.
