Wow! What a response I've had to the e-newsletter! I hope everyone finds it informative and useful.
A couple events to add, thanks to Carl McDaniel, '64, Chair of EnviroAlums:
Oberlin's first Environmental Reunion sponsored by the Alumni Office, EnviroAlums, and ENVS Dept will be held on Oct 9-11, 2009. Hosted by the Environmental Studies Program and EnviroAlums, the Oberlin Environmental Reunion is a weekend of reflection and projection.
The nation’s foremost environmental educator, Oberlin’s David Orr, gives the keynote address on Friday, October 9 and concludes the weekend on Sunday with his symposium From Here to There: Visions of a Prosperous, Post-Carbon Region. The “meat” between these Nine Grain slices of vision is not to be missed!
Please visit the Alumni Association home page for a statement about the reunion with links to reunion information.
Secondly, Carl McDaniel's new home, Trail Magic, a climate-neutral, positive-energy home in Oberlin, will have an open house on the OH Solar Tour day, Sunday, Oct 4, from 12 to 4 PM. It is perhaps the most energy efficient home in Oberlin and its energy bill for the first year was zero. All energy came from on site sunshine. The builder, architect, and geothermal person will be at the open house.
Trail Magic is located at 495 East College Street, Oberlin, OH 44074. For an introduction to the house and to Carl, please click here. You can also access a PDF about Trail Magic by visiting this page and clicking on "Trail Magic" in the left bar.
Hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful weather.
