<\/span> <\/p>\n

The TREE Semester<\/a> is a 16-week residential semester, similar to a traditional study abroad experience, where students live and learn at the Catamount Center<\/a>, in the montane forest near Woodland Park. While the program is open to all CC students, it was especially designed for students interested in environmental and educational fields.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

CC students can only participate in TREE once, but Howard Drossman<\/a> P\u201923, TREE Semester program director and professor of environmental education, often hires TREE alumni to return as fellows. Fellows are residents who assist students with their science and education assignments, run the community, and take lead roles on the early teaching.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

By the end of the semester, each student has developed a professional portfolio that they submit to the Colorado Alliance for Environmental Education for professional certification.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

On average, nine CC students participate in TREE each year. There is no required coursework for admission to TREE, but in Drossman\u2019s experience, students who have good writing and community living skills, as well as previous science and education classes, tend to be most successful in the program.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

The deadline to apply for TREE Program Fall 2023 is March 15, 2023<\/strong>. For more information, apply on SUMMIT or contact Howard Drossman at hdrossman@coloradocollege.edu<\/a><\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

Do you know Colorado College alumni who significantly impact Colorado’s nonprofit sector?
<\/span><\/div>\n
The Livesay Award was created in honor of popular and well-respected Professor Emeritus of Sociology Jeff Livesay, who brought the Public Interest Fellowship Program to Colorado College and has shepherded it through years of growth to become a signature program on campus. It is presented each year to a CC graduate who is living out the mission, spirit, and goals of the PIFP in their life and career by contributing to systemic change, increasing the capacity of the nonprofit sector, and helping to build a new generation of nonprofit leaders.<\/p>\n

The Colorado College Public Interest Fellowship Program invites you to nominate a Colorado College graduate for the Livesay Award for Social Change.<\/p>\n

If you know a CC grad who has made a significant career contribution to the nonprofit sector in Colorado over the years, please nominate them for the Livesay Award. Nominations for the Livesay Award must be submitted by April 1<\/strong> each year. We invite everyone and anyone to submit a nomination. To nominate a Colorado College graduate please complete this form<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

Reel Rock Film Tour<\/a> and Sender Films<\/a>, founded by CC alums Nick Rosen \u201997, Josh Lowell \u201994, and Peter Mortimer \u201997, filmed, directed, and edited the film after Bruns convinced them to come to Palestine and make the film about climbing. “The ultimate goal of the film is to change the narrative about Palestinians and to humanize them to the world. If we succeed, I hope there will be more resources available to the Palestinian climbers, more international climbers going to visit Palestine and a better understanding of the region globally. We are also hoping to leverage the momentum of the tour to raise money for continued climbing development in Palestine<\/a>,” says Bruns. <\/span><\/div>\n
