"Sustainability Showcase" at Dominican for Earth Day

Dominican University of California’s GreenMBA program is hosting a series of free Earth Day events on campus on Friday, April 20, capped by a “Sustainability Showcase” from 6-8 p.m. in Angelico Hall.

The “Sustainability Showcase” will feature the premiere of a video highlighting the University’s sustainable programs and initiatives.

Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey, in her 10th term as the United States’ representative from California’s 6th District, is scheduled to speak at the “Sustainability Showcase.” It is a grant -- researched and created by a team of four faculty members and five student interns -- that impacts many departments at Dominican involved with sustainability-related work.
