Sustainability Education Provides a Reason to Hope COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY - SIPA Admissions Blog

Sustainability Education Provides a Reason to Hope COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY - SIPA Admissions Blog SIPA Professor Steve Cohen recently authored a piece which appeared in the Huffington Post. The full article is here and a short excerpt is below.   You can also find an interview with Professor Cohen concerning our Energy and Environmental Studies program by clicking here. While oil continues to ooze into the Gulf of Mexico and the climate bill remains stalled in the Senate, I might be delusional, but I am feeling optimistic about our planets prospects. It helps to work at a university, and it especially helps to participate in graduation ceremonies like the ones I attended here at Columbia this past week. While this years job market remains tough for our graduates, it is not nearly as horrific as the market faced by the class of 2009. The energy and idealism of our graduates is infectious and should be a source of hope for everyone.
