Students
Prepping for the "green jobs" of today, you're studying ecogastronomy and sustainable engineering, interning for places like NH Businesses for Social Responsibility, and starting programs that push UNH's sustainability leadership forward: UNH Unplugged Energy Challenge and Trash-2-Treasure programs were started by students!
After waking up in an ENERGY STAR® residence hall, you walk to a dining hall to chow down on local, organic eggs and Fair Trade coffee.
Today's classes? "Global Environmental Change" and "Culture and Sustainability in Contemporary Indigenous Texts."
A quick CNG shuttle ride takes you to your afternoon session prepping to study in Italy next fall as part of UNH's Dual Major in EcoGastronomy.
You bike to the Organic Garden Club farm to get your hands dirty, then cap off your night at a SEAC meeting being inspired by talks given by visionaries like Gary Hirshberg or Maude Barlow.
Tomorrow? An interview for a summer IROP to research to alternative fuels in Brazil.
Just another day in your life as a UNH student. Who knew preparing for your future could be so much fun?
That's right, you did.
