SUMMARY:Spirit of Sustainability Awards Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The Auburn University Spirit of Sustainability Awards program exists to recognize individuals or groups of Auburn University students\, faculty\, staff\, and alumni that exemplify the Auburn spirit by making significant contributions toward sustainability on campus or in a community at any point along the Sustainability Compass: Nature\, Economy\, Society\, individual or collective Wellbeing. Nature undertakings exemplify how we can restore\, protect\, and live in accord with the laws of Nature.  Economic achievements contribute to a prosperous economy that is viable\, fair\, and inclusive.  Societal work cultivates connectedness\, caring\, equity\, and engagement.  Efforts for Wellbeing nurture individual health\, fulfillment\, happiness\, and collective wellbeing. \nWhile all nominations echo various points of the Sustainability Compass\, awardees are chosen based upon their motivation and commitment to sustainability; the impact of their work; and the degree to which they engage and involve others in their efforts. \nWe will be distributing the awards at the Spirit of Sustainability Awards Ceremony on April 23rd\, 2025.

SUMMARY:Speaker: Catherine Coleman Flowers
DESCRIPTION:In Holy Ground: On Activism\, Environmental Justice\, and Finding Hope\, Catherine Coleman Flowers explores the intersection of environmental issues\, civil rights\, and social justice through both personal and political lenses. Flowers draws on her experience fighting for vulnerable rural communities of color who lack access to clean\, safe environments\, weaving together stories from her own life with broader analyses of climate change\, poverty\, and systemic disinvestment. Through reflections on history\, faith\, and interconnectedness\, she charts a path toward equity and environmental justice. This collection of personal essays serves as both a call to action and a roadmap for creating a more just and sustainable future for all communities. \nCatherine Coleman Flowers is an internationally recognized environmental justice activist and the founder of the Center for Rural Enterprise and Environmental Justice. A MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient\, Flowers sits on the board of directors of the Climate Reality Project\, the Natural Resources Defense Council\, and RMI. She has served as the co-vice chair of the inaugural White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council and is a practitioner-in-residence at the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University. Flowers is the author of Waste: One Woman’s Fight Against America’s Dirty Secret. In April 2025\, TIME named her as one of six leaders to receive the TIME Earth Awards. In 2023\, Flowers was recognized as one of the TIME 100 most influential people in the world\, and as one of Forbes’ 50 Over 50.

SUMMARY:Branching Out: The Public History of Trees with Brian Dempsey and Carrie Barske Crawford
DESCRIPTION:Part of the OLLI at Auburn Brown Bag Series \n     Trees are often viewed primarily as natural resources\, yet they also hold powerful places in our cultural landscapes and collective memory. Branching Out: The Public History of Trees\, a 2025 essay collection from the University of Massachusetts Press\, explores trees through this cultural lens and examines their important role in public history practice.  \n     University of North Alabama historians Dr. Brian Dempsey and Dr. Carolyn Barske Crawford each contributed essays to the volume. In “An Island of Trees Called Old Hickory: History and Place in the Mississippi Delta\,” Dempsey examines a small stand of trees on the edge of Cleveland\, Mississippi. Though ordinary in appearance\, the site embodies deep cultural associations that illuminate how people connect with and interpret their local landscapes. \n     In “‘The Most Useful Tree:’ The American Chestnut\, Stories\, and Species Restoration\,” Crawford explores how the American Chestnut Foundation leverages memories of the tree’s once-vital economic\, social\, and cultural role in Appalachia to support ongoing restoration efforts. Her work highlights the potential for powerful partnerships between scientists and public historians. Together\, Dempsey and Crawford will share insights from their research and invite the audience to reflect on why trees matter—not only ecologically\, but as anchors of meaning in public history and cultural life.

SUMMARY:Inspired by William Bartram: Southern Landscapes by Philip Juras
DESCRIPTION:Part of the OLLI at Auburn Brown Bag Series \nGrowing up in Georgia\, artist Philip Juras could only dream of the bountiful southern nature that William Bartram documented two and a half centuries ago. Inspired by Bartram’s writing\, Philip has created a body of paintings depicting both contemporary and historic natural landscapes from across the South.  \nHe will present work from his exhibit and award-winning book The Southern Frontier\, Landscapes Inspired by Bartram’s “Travels”\, along with new drawings and paintings that explore some of the forgotten landscapes Bartram so eloquently painted in words. By celebrating the beauty and richness of the nature we still have today while also conveying what we have lost\, Philip’s work helps us imagine what can be restored for future generations.
