We informally muse on the state of environmental curriculum in universities after Don returns from visiting 5 colleges in the United States. Visits included conversations with professors and students about: where environmental studies are housed in universities, nature of the curriculum (policy, science, engineering), where students are finding jobs and whether climate change and carbon management are adequately represented. The American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment is mentioned.
