Kathy & Leslie Mezei and Janet Laughton Mackay partnered with staff and students to deliver a full day symposium Oct. 27th to 80+ students and staff at George Brown College – one of Canada’s largest city colleges – on George ‘Green’ Day. Included throughout were a series of punchy, 5-minute ‘Green Spot’ presentations by students and staff describing their ‘green the college’ actions. College organizers are very intentional on ‘greening’ and embedding social justice into both the physical plant and the full curriculum. They were greatly pleased with the successful event and major ‘kick off’ for launching the college into a ‘green’ vector , and requested the Symposium be an annual event.
