A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:
In 2008, the Notre Dame Forum topic was Sustainable Energy and was marketed as “a bold invitation to the entire Notre Dame family to embark upon a thoughtful and comprehensive course of sustainability in our personal lifestyles, our institutional practices, our intellectual life and research, and our civic commitments.” The purpose of the annual forum is to engage the community at Notre Dame to enter a dialogue about the specific topic. It was during this year that Notre Dame’s Office of Sustainability was established.
