Sigma Tau Delta members with Bill McKibben
Front row: Dr. R. Scott LaMascus, Wil Norton, Kaylee McDaniel, Jackson Tandy, Bill McKibben, Taylor Walling, and STD President Kate Long
Back row: Angela Bebb, STD Secretary Bailey Thomas, Roy Rhodes, STD Chaplain John Barker, and STD Vice President Justin Neill
The lunch at the Petroleum Club with Bill McKibben was a huge success, and the following evening was great as well. McKibben spoke on the environment and the current climate crisis in a large room in the back of the Student Center. After he spoke (and Roy provided water), he signed books and talked to people in the lobby, in the midst of a reception provided by the department.
All in all, it was interesting and fun, and it was agreed that McKibben was a great choice for this year's McBride Lectureship. We eagerly anticipate next year's Lectureship!
McKibben inspired a lot of ideas for the department and OC to go green, so be looking for opportunities to show up in emails and on this blog.
In other news, our annual Halloween party is Friday, October 24! Come dressed as a dead literary character - or at least a dead person!
See you there!
Have a great week!
