From the President:
It is crucial that Purdue and the Purdue Community become more engaged, knowledgeable, and involved citizens in the greater Lafayette/West Lafayette Community.  We are not people simply passing through on our way to bigger and (better?) places, but residents that need to make a commitment to working toward the improvement of the environment in this area.  This is why we need to educate ourselves about the value of supporting local endeavors, buying local foods, purchasing items that are healthier for the environment, supporting local schools, and keeping our community clean.  These goals and contributions to community are the reason that the ESC engages in activities such as adopt a highway, teaches children in local school programs, supports businesses in the community who are supporting the environment, and tries to
educate ourselves about the best choices that we can be making as
individuals.

Hey environmentalists! It's super exciting to be starting out on a new semester with all of you! My hope is that we'll be able to get those of you who are interested involved in projects either through ESC or other organizations in the Purdue, Lafayette, and United States communities! If you ever have questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to tell us!

Major: Civil Engineering (Hydraulics Emphasis)
Expected Graduation: May 2011

From the Public Relations Director:
I have always enjoyed spending time in the natural world whether I'm backpacking, canoeing, biking, or just taking in my surroundings. It is that appreciation of the environment that has lead to me wanting to understand and protect the environment. That's a big part of why I'm studying civil engineering. Human growth is inevitable, so we need people concerned about the environment helping determine how we interact with it. I hope to help the ESC do the best we can in our mission of environmental education and awareness.
