Building A Community Garden

January 5, 2012

As a graduate student in the Center For Creative Change: Environment and Community, Permaculture Program and Graduate of The School of Education, I would like to invite my fellow alumni to a viewing of The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil on Wednesday, Jan 11th as a way to start the discussion of building a community garden in the Sammamish Valley (The Sharecroppers’ Garden) that will serve as a practical environmental and community educational lab. The location to view the movie (which is from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.) is the Sammamish Valley Grange, 14654 148th Ave N.E. in Woodinville.

Events are free to the public and will be held every 4th Wednesday at the Sammamish Valley Grange. Graduate students of our local universities and colleges, and residents of King country are welcome participants in this endeavor designed to preserve the culture and history of the Sammamish Valley Community as well as to provide students/residents with a sense of belonging and pride in their community.

Plan on tasting interesting local fare
Engaging in discussion
Having Fun

Alumna Looking For Solution

November 11, 2011

I am communting back and forth from Seattle to the San Fernando Valley area in California to help out my 90 year old mother. I am looking for a flexible job that I am able to do in Washington state and California. Ideally, something on the internet. My background is nursing and received a master’s degree in Psychology from Antioch in 1998. It doesn’t have to be in those fields necessarily. Any ideas, resources or suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Stress and Your Local Fire Department, According to AUS Alum

September 13, 2011

Stress-induced psychological and physiological disorders top the list of health problems in industrialized nations, and fire departments should be proactive with stress management to avoid firefighter burnout — this according to a Antioch University Seattle alumnus and clinical psychologist who spoke at Fire-Rescue International last month.

Alum Looking for Feedback

August 13, 2011

Hello Friends,

For some of you we just spoke recently, for most others, it’s been a while.

One reason for that is a project that I’ve been working on since November. I’ve been a part of the EcoMyths Alliance, a non-profit environmental education group dedicated to science based research, awareness and publication. Think MythBusters but exclusively focused on environmental myths. We’re partnered with a lot of great organizations such as: DePaul University, the Alliance for the Great Lakes, Brookfield Zoo, The Field Museum, the US Forest Service, US Fish & Wildlife, Chicago Wilderness and several others.

I’d appreciate it if you’d visit our newly launched web site at http://ecomythsalliance.org and take a gander. If you like what you see at our web site, feel free to subscribe to our mailing list, friend us on FaceBook, follow us on Twitter and spread the word by telling your friends.

Any feedback you have is welcome. Thanks for your time and hope to talk to you soon.
