range of current environmental and related social issues. The student-initiated
festival will screen narrative films, documentaries, short films, and student
projects. Additional events including conversations with filmmakers, panel
discussions, and workshops will encourage further dialogue. For those Green
Building Council members who have not yet had the opportunity, the event will
offer the chance to see our new, completed, LEED-platinum FES Building.
