Jane Haladay (American Indian Studies) and Scott Hicks (English, Theatre, & Foreign Languages) have co-edited a book that foregrounds educators' personal stories. Narratives of Educating for Sustainability in Unsustainable Environments explores the challenges of teaching sustainability across a range of disciplines in difficult ecological, political, economic, and social contexts. Contributing authors teach in universities within the United States and internationally, both as tenured faculty and as adjuncts, and share a strong commitment to sustainability education even as they work to sustain their own personal and professional relationships within sometimes demoralizing, dysfunctional, or unsustainable circumstances.
