In HLTH 362: Environmental Health, students presented their ‘second-life’ projects. All objects were made from second-hand items to create a new, final product including shelves, a cat post/bed, wooden chest, flower vases, a clock, a lamp, games, and accessories.
On October 28th, students from HLTH 362 presented their ‘second-life’ projects on Sustainability Day. Sustainability Day was co-hosted with the President’s Sustainability Action Committee, Student Government, and the Bike Coop.

On October 22nd, HLTH 362 spent half the day at Possibility Alliance in LaPlata to learn more about sustainable living. Possibility Alliance is a sanctuary run by Ethan and Sarah Hughes as well as countless volunteers. Students’ eyes were open to the idea of living in the present and learning how to live a more sustainable life, while also discussing key environmental issues.
