iCons Faculty Selected as 2018-19 Sustainability Curriculum Fellow
UMass iCons Faculty, Jared Starr, was named a 2018-19 UMass Sustainability Curriculum Fellow. Fellows will meet once a month during the academic year to share knowledge and learn about available resources on campus related to sustainability. They will offer feedback to each other on integrating sustainability into lesson plans. Jared's primary interest in applying was to meet more faculty on campus that work on sustainability research in order to connect a broader network of faculty collaborators to iCons 1 students working on case studies that align with faculty interests.
