Book of the Week #7

The Sustainable Learning Community: One University's Journey to the Future edited by John Aber, Tom Kelly, and Bruce Mallory (Durham, NH: UNH Press, 2009)

"University communities have the potential to serve as models in the development and application of sustainability principles and practices, not only by what they teach and study, but also by how they operate facilities and engage
with off-campus partners. With the oldest endowed campus-wide sustainability program in the country, established in 1997, the University of New Hampshire has
become a leader in advancing a campus culture of sustainability. The UNH experience provides a unique window into the development of a new and integrated
approach to teaching, learning, research, and operations. It is also a valuable guide for other institutions that aim to enhance the quality of campus life while reducing their environmental footprint." (from the book jacket)

John Aber, Tom Kelly, and Bruce Mallory are all members of the UNH community.

On Wednesday, February 17, 2010 at 7pm John Aber and Tom Kelly will be talking about this book at RiverRun.
