iCons is frequently in the news. Here you can view news highlights from our program, press clips from media coverage, upcoming iCons events, and musings in our blog.
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.
"iCons will always be a way of life for me, and the iCons program will continue to inform my most important career decisions. I will forever see the world through the lens of an iCons student. I have high expectations for myself going forward, and I have high expectations for all those who graduate from the iCons program at UMass Amherst. May our combined efforts be for the benefit of all." ---- Kurt Schultz
iCons junior and NRC major, Eric Wuesthoff, has been selected as 1 of only 2 UMass Amherst undergraduates to win the prestigious Barry Goldwater Scholarship. Please join us in congratulating him!

Tuesday 3/21, iCons students proved there is no craft they can't tackle. Check Decoupage off the list. Students and faculty (Ally Hunter) gathered in ISB 145 armed with nothing more than scissors, craft paper, e6000 apoxy, mod podge, and some creativity. Some beautiful work was created and some fun had. At the end of the time, the pizza box was empty and many were peeling the glue off of their fingers with a look of accomplishment on their faces. A small break from the stresses of academic life.
Come join us next time if you can make it :)
The iCons Community joins together for many events outside the classroom. Here are a few from last semester!
