Welcome to Education
for Civic Societies and Sustainable Communities (CSSC). This project was
begun in 2000 to establish a North American curriculum that will
foster a regional civic mindedness among students in the United
States, Canada, and Mexico.
Through CSSC, students
probe how local and North American issues intersect to shape a regionally
focused civic society and sustainable community.
Graduates who have experienced the program will be able to cross borders,
working collaboratively toward solving problems that require an understanding
of the issues from a local, state, national, and regional perspective.
Students work in numerous interdisciplinary-based settings, such
as environmental organizations; community-building programs, immigration
organizations, local, state, or national governments, and resource use
and preservation organizations and agencies.
These hands-on experiences are preparing leaders who will shape the dialogue
between Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
