The Future of Sustain!

The UNM Campus Sustainability Forum has had its ups and downs over the years, but I think it is time to make some decisions about our future. For me the driving question is: what does the sustainability movement on campus need to move forward? How can a group like Sustain! best support the growth of a better world? For the sake of some organization in the responses and as a way to make a decision later, I will provide a multiple choice framework. Please preface your response with the one you feel best represents your ideas.

A: The sustainability movement needs a single group to lead the efforts on campus and speak with a unified voice.
B: UNM Sustain should host/cohost various events on campus to bring together people who care about various causes - but it should have no agenda of its own
C: Sustain should be like any other group, with a working of important social issues to bring to the attention of the community.
D: All we need is a calendar to let people know when the many other groups on campus are holding events.
E: I am proposing something entirely different.

Listserv complaints

So the listserv is awful and it has cluttered your inbox, subjected you to various and sundry offensive points of view, and has turned into a dingo and eaten your child (no I'm not sure how the last one works either.) Want to complain about it, or maybe... possibly... even make a suggestion. I have provided the cheese, now you provide the whine - have at it.

Meeting Times

First order of business is to set up meeting times for the group. Our first meeting is tomorrow - Wednesday January 30th at 1:30 in the SUB Scholars Room (third floor, north end) - and we will discuss future meeting times there. If you cannot make it to the meeting, or would prefer to have your vote counted twice - please post your votes for meeting times here.

Welcome

We now have a place where we can hash-out, discuss, debate, bitch and moan, complain and occasionally have constructive criticism without cluttering our collective in-boxes. This doesn't seem like the perfect solution, but please use it for now instead of the listserv for non-announcement type posts.

Max...
