The California Student Sustainability Coalition (CSSC) is a network of students from across California higher-education systems who come together once a semester to hold a convergence of workshops, keynote addresses and networking opportunities. This fall, the convergence will be held on CSU, Chico’s campus, the farthest north the convergence has ever been hosted.
Saturday, Nov. 5, will provide students with access to 40 workshops on a variety of topics, meals and two keynote addresses. Keynote speakers are Derrick Jensen, a renowned author and activist, and Tony “Morgoth” Gamboa, a student activist currently attending Prescott College in Arizona.
Attendees will be traveling from as far south as San Diego, Calif. and as far north as Arcata, Calif. All events are free to CSU, Chico students, and online registration will be available until Wednesday, Nov. 2. On-site registration will be available the morning of Nov. 5.
