W&J announces programs on campus
The next event of the Washington & Jefferson College Energy Lecture Series is schedule for 7 p.m. Tuesday in Yost Auditorium of the Howard J. Burnett Center.
“Do You BTU? Scoring Your Building for Energy Savings Potential” features three speakers: Stephen Lee, head of the School of Architecture at Carnegie Mellon University; Erica Cochran Hameen, assistant professor and the UDream program director in the School of Architecture at Carnegie Mellon University; and Dr. Aurora Sharrard, executive director and vice president of Innovation for Green Building Alliance.
The lecture is sponsored by W&J’s Center for Energy Policy and Management in conjunction with the Science & Engineering Ambassadors Program, a Pittsburgh-based initiative of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering.
At 7 p.m. Wednesday, international mediator and peace prize winner Mary Montague returns to W&J with a free public lecture, “Alien-Nation: Relationships and Reconciliation, Relationships that Transcend Separation and Disconnection,” in Allen Ballroom of Rossin Campus Center.
In light of the “Brexit” decision in the United Kingdom and the Syrian refugee crisis affecting countries around the world, Montague plans to discuss the peacekeeping process in terms of immigration.
Montague is in residence in Washington this semester and is a visiting professor at W&J.
