With the ever-increasing awareness of the need to incorporate our community and environment into the leadership of our economic development, adding the formal study of "Sustainability" and Sustainable Development would allow our students to become thought leaders in creating the businesses of the future. Many colleges and universities are starting programs yearly, we need to do so, or fall behind.

The study should be a mix of leadership, science and philosophy studies. While companies like ours are striving to educate the companies of today, leaving college prepared to lead Sustainability efforts and Sustainable Product Development will allow students to leapfrog their competitors for jobs and a position in the developing economy of the future.
