FOR OUR FUTURE

Founder and CEO of Under the Weather Pet, alumna Kyla Sternlieb is among the latest in Vermont’s line of entrepreneurs turning a better idea into a growing business. | BY THOMAS WEAVER The word “sustainability” covers much of the research focus of UVM faculty, dedicated to creating new knowledge and building new practices for a healthy environment and healthy communities. | BY CATHERINE ARNOLD, JOSHUA BROWN, KAITIE CATANIA, JANET FRANZ, RACHEL LESLIE, JENNIFER NACHBUR

GAME ON

In 1977, working in the Royall Tyler Theatre costume shop, a trio of friends stitched together the prototype of a revolution. As women’s sports have thrived across the past four decades, the humble Jogbra has been both essential gear and symbol of change. | BY KAITIE CATANIA

The Mile High City is a magnet for many alumni looking westward after graduation. We check in with a number of Catamounts making their lives and livings along the Front Range of the Rockies. | BY THOMAS WEAVER

COVER: University photographer since 1989, Sally McCay will retire from UVM this summer. The photo of the Green and Waterman Building from last May is one of countless beautiful shots she has taken documenting the University of Vermont, the place and the people, across the past three decades. Her work will be missed.
