Education » Colleges/Universities

Hello, my name is Anghy Aragón Alegría.  I am an ELCA scholar through the International Women Leaders program. I am currently a student at Luther College where I am majoring in International Studies. I am excited to share information on how Lutheran colleges and universities are taking steps towards sustainability.

If you have stories to share or want to connect with others working to integrate sustainability as a priority on their campus, contact us at: education@lutheransrestoringcreation.org
