Previous C2C Events
Spring 2012
In the spring of 2012, C2C Fellows held two more regional workshops-- one in Athens, GA at the University of Georgia and the other at Oberlin College in Ohio. Overall, over 60 Fellows completed the C2C weekend workshop.
Fall 2011
C2C Fellows Launch Workshop
The inaugural C2C Fellows launch workshop occured on December 2nd-4th, 2011. Twenty-five Fellows convened at Bard College for a weekend of skills training and critical discussion on the future of the planet. Majora Carter delivered the keynote address Friday evening and delivered an inspiring speech on developing a leadership career.
Spring 2011
In spring 2011, the Bard Center for Environmental Policy, sponsored skype dialogues between campus and congress on energy, climate and jobs as part of our C2C/EARTHweeks initiative. To participate, faculty just needed to express their interest. Our C2C team did the rest: invitation, scheduling, access to policy resources for your students, suggested questions, etc. We even staffed the DC end of the skype dialogs, bringing a laptop to the office of your Senator or Congressperson at the appointed time. C2C/EARTHweeks has helped us get hundreds of students, faculty and staff in states and congressional districts accross the country engaged and tuned into the critical decisions concerning our future being made in Washington.
