20th Anniversary Environmental Studies Distinguished Speaker and Symposium

4:45-5:30 pm:  Reception
5:30 pm:  Robert Bullard keynote address followed by alumni panel

Macalester College’s Environmental Studies Department is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. To mark the occasion, we are hosting a 20th Anniversary symposium titled “The Quest for Environmental and Climate Justice: Why Equity Matters”.

The event features a return keynote address from Dr. Robert Bullard, long regarded as the father of the environmental justice movement. Bullard last addressed the Environmental Studies community in April 2005 at the time the department was established.  This will be followed by an alumni panel of Environmental Studies graduates working to advance environmental justice.

Join us in celebration as we highlight the many faculty, students, and partners who have engaged in environmental justice research, teaching, and community practice. 

This event is in collaboration with the Macalester Program Board, Institutional Equity, Community Engagement Center, and ReConnect Rondo.
