Environmental Studies Student Advisory Council

The Environmental Studies Student Advisory Council (ES-SAC), a group composed of juniors and seniors in the program, works in consultation with the faculty and staff in the program to provide feedback about the curriculum, plan fun events and activities, and provide resources for majors, minors, and prospective students in the program. When the ES program is recruiting faculty, the SAC meets with candidates and makes an informal recommendation to the program. Additionally, when the ES program is being externally reviewed, the SAC meets the external review committee to express student views and concerns. Typically, the SAC meets twice a month, but it can also meet as ES students wish. The SAC strives to strengthen the community within environmental studies, while also engaging with the Middlebury campus at large.

Interested in contacting the ES-SAC? Current members can be reached at essac@middlebury.edu.
