Sustainability

Babson has been working to reduce our impact on the environment and the climate for decades, but now we’re taking it up a notch.

All across the Babson campus there are staff, students and faculty tackling issues of sustainability and resource efficiency and working to solve these integrated challenges. In the summer of 2010, we opened the Babson Sustainability Office to support, enhance and coordinate these efforts.

Babson is a signatory of the American College and University President’s Climate Commitment and we take our obligations seriously. In addition, we are a business school, aimed at educating tomorrow’s entrepreneurs and innovators. Babson is committed to integrating social and economic sustainability concepts into the business practices of this next generation of leaders and to create resilient, sustainable prosperity. We invite you to explore our actions, commitments and initiatives, and to share your ideas for making Babson, and society, more sustainable.​​​​​​

Jackson Katz is one of America's leading anti-sexist male activists. An educator, author, filmmaker, and cultural theorist, he is internationally recognized for his groundbreaking work in the field of gender violence prevention education and critical media literacy.

Katz is the co-founder of the Mentors In Violence Prevention (MVP) program, the leading gender violence prevention initiative in professional and college athletics. He is the director of the first worldwide domestic and sexual violence prevention program in the United States Marine Corps. He is also the creator and co-creator of educational videos for college and high school students, including Tough Guise: Violence, Media, and the Crisis in Masculinity (2000), Wrestling With Manhood (2002) and Spin the Bottle: Sex, Lies and Alcohol (2004).

His first book, The Macho Paradox: Why Some Men Hurt Women and How All Men Can Help, was published by Sourcebooks in 2006. Katz's second book, Leading Men: Presidential Campaigns and the Politics of Manhood, was published by Interlink Publishing in 2012.
