This semester, MCC Educators for Global Awareness (MEGA) plans to hold events during Earth Week in April relating to the theme "Creating Energy Security." Topics for the week will include but are not limited to:
* Rochester's role in the emerging Hydrogen Age
* Impacts of oil dependence on American foreign policy
* Creating a hopeful future through thought and action
* Jobs and economic development relating to sustainability
We invite faculty and staff from all disciplines to join in MEGA's efforts for the week of April 19th. A planning session will take place on Wednesday, March 17, at noon in 11-250. Please come and bring your valuable ideas and enthusiasm.
Formed two and a half years ago, MCC Educators for Global Awareness (MEGA) is made up of faculty and staff from across the disciplines. Our mission is three-fold:
1. To foster understanding of the United States' role in a global context
2. To appreciate the perspectives of non-American cultures and nationalities
3. To engage in active, engaged citizenship through education and critical thinking
