2 It s not just Earth Day. It s every day. Chatham is the alma mater of environmental icon Rachel Carson 29. Her inspiration has driven Chatham to become a leader in sustainability. And like Rachel, who was a writer as well as a scientist, our approach to sustainability is about much more than the environment. It s about: G Renewing our urban neighborhoods. G Developing responsible agriculture and food systems. G Improving health and wellbeing. G Transforming industries in socially responsible ways. G Using creativity to improve quality of life. With over 60 undergraduate and graduate programs in the health & lab sciences, business & communications, the arts & humanities, and sustainability, students experience firsthand why at Chatham, it s not just Earth Day, it s every day. #chathamu Visit our social media sites for additional information. r chatham.edu/apply
