LEAFE

Learn, Express, and Act For the Earth. We are the Nelson Institute's student organization! Together, we can make an actual difference on Earth.

Together we represent a vast array of disciplines from across the campus, all working together to solve environmental challenges. "Learn, Express, and Act For the Earth" is a multi-disciplinary student organization focused on solving real world environmental problems. Each month an environmental issue is selected and prestigious speeches, public forums, and mass volunteer events are hosted! The go

al for members is to come up with practical solutions, create career networks, volunteer, build up a formidable resume, and have FUN in the environment.
