David Orr,
author of "Earth in Mind" (1994) and "Ecological Literacy" (1992)
and professor of environmental studies at Oberlin College, will
present a case study of Oberlin's new Center for Environmental Studies.
Attention will be given both to its cutting-edge, energy efficient
design and the political maneuvering needed to construct such a
building on a college campus.
The symposium
is co-sponsored by the Institute of Environmental Science and Policy,
the Green Campus Council, City Design Center and the Great Cities
Institute. Advanced
registration is required.
