The goal
CDIR’s goal is to help Elon students expand their
definition of what it means to be a global citizen by
creating a vision of life that takes non-‐humans into
account. CDIR will create a welcoming and hospitable demeanor in students,
faculty and staff as well as teach them how to be
attuned to their environment and surroundings.
Interested? Many schools such as Eckerd, Stephens, and Washington &
Jefferson are allowing students to bring their pets to school. Why not take it a step further with CDIR? If
you’d like to be a part of this new project, contact Thomas Berry at [email protected]. Thanks for your support!
