• W98140777 abstract "Students need to see examples from society's leaders of actions to address urgent sustainability challenges in order to motivate them to take actions of their own. Now it is up to us to...make moral choices to change the policies and behaviors that would, if continued, leave a degraded, diminished, and hostile planet for our children and grandchildren. Al Gore (2006, p. 296) What is an inheritance? The dictionary' defines it as: 1 : a: the act of inheriting property b: the reception of genetic qualities by transmission from parent to offspring c: the acquisition of a possession, condition, or trait from past generations 2: something that is or may be inherited 3: a: tradition b: a valuable possession that is a common heritage from nature What Kind of Inheritance Can Your Campus Create? Does your campus enrich the education of its students? Do they admire, appreciate, and love the campus? Are you creating an inheritance that they will be proud of? Will they be inspired by the example of their alma mater to create a proud legacy of their own for future generations? As alumni, will they remember their campus with pride for the leadership that it exemplified? What should campus planners do to work toward creating a legacy for their students that will in turn inspire them to work toward a better future for their descendents? As a society, we need to adopt a long-term view to avert the global disasters that are looming on several fronts: climate change, food shortages, water shortages, and poverty. The list is daunting and the challenges can seem overwhelming. Imagine the thoughts of 20-year-old students as they learn about the problems they will inherit from our generation-problems they will have to cope with as they create their own futures. What Legacy Will Your Students Leave for Future Generations? Adopting a long-term view involves having the courage to make decisions that may detract from your own immediate interests. While humans find this excruciatingly difficult most of the time, in critical situations they can rise to the challenge and make heroic, even life-threatening, efforts on behalf of a third party. Western society has been very successful in many ways: developing economically, improving health, developing democratic governance systems, cleaning up contaminated sites and waterways, cleaning the air of certain types of pollution, and giving financial aid to developing countries. But these successes have generated many unintended consequences. This generation of millennial students will be faced with the daunting task of tackling these complex problems. What is missing in the current climate change challenge is enough people who understand its critical nature. Those who do understand may not know what to do; those who know what to do may lack the will to take action. Students need to see society's leaders taking action to address this urgent challenge to motivate them to take actions of their own. What are Students Concerned About? Experience shows that students come to higher education with absolute, categorical thinking and eventually move toward uncertainty, flexibility, and risk as they learn new ways of thinking. They merge personal identity, values, beliefs, knowledge, skills, and interests, and move toward finding fulfillment and human actualization. As part of their education, students should be encouraged to think about how they might address major societal issues. In a recent course on sustainability for MBA students at Royal Roads University, I asked them to write a letter to their great-grandchild that described what it is like to be alive now, what they imagine it would be like to be alive in the future, their concerns for both the present and the future, what they are doing to improve the prospects for the future, and their advice to their great-grandchildren. …" @default.
