This Workshop brings together students and faculty at Colorado College on a continuing basis to jointly explore dimensions of sustainable development through class work, research, speakers and symposia. For information on supported student projects, please visit the projects section.

As Colorado College students pursue their undergraduate studies by fulfilling all-college requirements and working towards a major, sustainable development studies can provide links between different fields of knowledge and encourage student independent work.

By providing students with the support they need to tackle problems hindering sustainable development, they realize that there can be cautious hope for a world whose natural beauty and integrity is rapidly being lost.

Funding for the Workshop comes from generous support provided by Michael B. Slade, Colorado College graduate in the Class of 1979 and trustee of the college.

Some of the other initiatives supported by the Mike Slade Sustainable Development Workshop include:
