- The interaction and response was amazing; thanks to all for working hard to set this up.
- The ASE and Community Garden table was rocking with hundreds of people stopping by, and pages of new contacts. Awesome job!
- Arts/Crafts table: AMAZING! Everyone (students, administration, young, old, girls, boys, etc.) were drawn into the great work of all the artists and crafters. It definitely stopped all in their tracks.
- Endless lines for free bicycle tune-ups; I don’t know how Maroon Bike managed to keep up. It seems like they tuned-up all of A&M.
- Also, a big thanks to all participating organizations/departments/bands/speakers/artists (photography, fashion)/farmers.
But wait! We have one more event…

“This is a great environmental documentary narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio. The film includes interviews with Nobel Prize recipients, social entrepreneurs like Paul Hawken!, and sustainability leaders (e.g. David Orr). It is a tremendous movie, the event link:”

Join us tonight to learn more about why/how we can help further sustainability on campus!
*The 6th annual National Campus Sustainability was the first for A&M and I believe we have already caught up to the rest of the nation with this one. All members of the Association for Social Entrepreneurship, the Sustainability Council, and Kelly Wellman, our Sustainability Officer just pulled off one of the most tremendous undertakings for progress on this campus. Incredible!
