- SUNDAY NIGHT ENVIRONMENTAL GROUP
Sunday Night Environmental Group (SNEG) is a non-hierarchical student org committed to climate and social justice activism. In the past we have pushed the college to divest from fossil fuels, passed anti-fossil fuel infrastructure resolutions in town, trained students on methods of non-violent direct action, occupied the statehouse, organized climate strikes, and so much more. We strive to ground our work in anti-racism, indigenous sovereignty, and community power.
All are welcome regardless of prior knowledge or experience.

Volunteer Empire: Participatory Propaganda in Putin’s Russia
How has geography become the central infrastructure of political authority in Putin’s Russia? Dr. Sofia Gavrilova (Fung Global Fellow, Princeton and Senior Researcher at the Leibniz Institute for Regional Geography), argues that that propaganda in Russia operates less through persuasion than through participation — by enrolling ordinary people in the everyday work of imperial reproduction. At the heart of the project is the concept of the “Volunteer Empire”: an empire reproduced through organized presence, care, and curated experience.

Farms Aren't Nature (and Other Arguments) with Matt Yglesias
- Sponsored by:
- Alexander Hamilton Forum
Why does the law protect a hobby farm the same way it protects a national park? Matt Yglesias, a journalist and author of the widely-read policy newsletter Slow Boring, argues that America’s habit of treating farmland as a form of nature drives up housing costs, entrenches NIMBYism under a “green” label, and, paradoxically, makes it harder to protect the land we actually want to preserve. Yglesias has been an influential voice in the “abundance” movement shaping debates over housing, energy, and infrastructure policy.
