National Association of Scholars

NAS president Peter Wood and research associate Rachelle Peterson appeared on Leaders with Ginni Thomas yesterday to discuss the report they co-wrote on the campus sustainability movement. Sustainability: Higher Education's New Fundamentalism, released in March, gives a comprehensive account of the latest ideology refashioning higher education. The 39-minute interview with Mrs. Thomas explores the history of the sustainability movement; its ties to the minimum wage, gay marriage, and #BlackLivesMatter movements; the costs of sustainability; the hollowing out of the curriculum; and more.
