INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT EXECUTIVE COUNCIL SUPPORTS SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS LEADERS In 2019-20, Delta Air Lines commenced its third installment as the Center’s inaugural Corporate Sustainability Program Executive Council participant. Through this program, we seek to develop deep partnerships with organizations that wish to invest in our students, collaborate on applied sustainability research, and amplify our values in the world of business. The partnership with Delta has helped to facilitate some of its own sustainability initiatives and to inspire faculty and student thought leadership through dynamic experiential learning opportunities in the classroom and beyond.
