Ecological Literacy II: Ethics and Economics
Informed and engaged citizens are essential to the creation of a civil and sustainable society. The University values the development of the responsible self grounded in honesty, courage, and compassion, and committed to advancing democratic ideals. Through service learning requirements, the University engages students in community involvement with time for formal reflection on their experiences. Integral to the University’s philosophy is instilling in students an environmental consciousness that balances their economic and social aspirations with the imperative for
ecological sustainability.
