YEAR IN REVIEW

SUSTAINABLE STEVENSON

Since 2013, the Center for Environmental Stewardship( CES) has been a part of the Fine School of the Sciences. The center’ s mission is to“ cultivate an environmentally literate citizenry and support educational opportunities and programs in environmental science and sustainability.” By promoting civic engagement and volunteerism, the CES works to keep the environment and neighboring communities healthy.
Kimberly Pause Tucker, Ph. D., Director, Center for Environmental Stewardship and Associate Professor of Biological Sciences, says that she and her students have worked hard during the past few years to get the CES where it is today.“ We are excited that there are so many great faculty, staff, and students who are interested in sustainability, and we hope that through our efforts and the efforts of others that sustainability and community service become an even bigger part of the SU culture.”

A NEW LOOK AT CAMPUS

In October, Stevenson launched new interactive campus maps to make it even easier to navigate its two campuses. When prospective students and their parents— as well as alumni coming back to see what else is new— visit campus, the University wants their experience to be a great one.
Visitors can now refine the search for their destination by campus, including a more specific breakdown by academic building, residence hall, athletic areas, dining facilities, parking, and shuttle bus stops. Other miscellaneous categories include campus stores, areas reserved for meditation, and quads.
Each location is marked by an icon and accompanying description. For added convenience, there is also a comprehensive search feature where any name or keyword of a campus structure can be entered with results immediately yielded in real-time.

PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY

Construction is underway for a pedestrian walkway through the forest buffer between the main Owings Mills campus and Owings Mills North to provide easy access for students, faculty, and staff.
