On Friday March 13, 2026 HSFI held its first Climate Change Education Symposium inviting professionals in this field to educate us on the topic of climate change, ultimately creating an engaging, interdisciplinary platform for learning, dialogue, and action. Each speaker's segment connected to one another showing our students what climate change is, how it affects our communities, sustainable careers, and actions we are able to take such as starting the conversation.
