Fall Line Project |
Sustainability
in the Curriculum |
Based
on the nationally recognized
Piedmont Project at Emory University, the Auburn Sustainability
Initiative has begun the Fall Line Project. This is an innovative
approach to curricular change that should be both an intellectually
stimulating and collegial experience for faculty across the
range of disciplines at Auburn.
Invited speakers and Auburn faculty facilitate
discussion of sustainability and its role in the university
curriculum. The workshop explores techniques for integrating
these issues into our classes. Though we start by taking a
close look at Auburn and the larger Eastern Alabama region,
we invite participants to engage in local/global comparisons.
Skeptics, environmentalists, and those in between have found
their various perspectives welcomed and enriched by the dialogue
and the project activities.
Faculty and advanced graduate student participants in the Fall Line Project
are committed to revising a course to incorporate sustainability.
The workshop at Emory has resulted in the inclusion of sustainability
content in more than a hundred courses. We are optimistic
that here at Auburn we can achieve the same success. For more
information contact Matt Williams or Lindy
Biggs.
