Residency Sessions

During the course of GMC graduate studies, students participate in two brief on-campus residencies – one at the beginning of each academic year. The residencies take place at the college campus and are led by Green Mountain College faculty. Visiting practitioners and business scholars are also valued participants.

The 2009 residency for new students (started April 2009 and September 2009) was from September 17 - 20. The residency dates for all others students (started September 2008) took place September 18 - 20.

Residency events include an official welcome to Green Mountain College, sessions and dinner with the business faculty, and presentations by leaders in sustainable business.



2009 Visiting Scholar

Bruce PiaseckiBruce Piasecki is the author of six books on business strategy, valuation, and corporate change. In his newest book, World Inc.: When It Comes to Solutions — Both Local and Global — Businesses Are Now More Powerful Than Government, Dr. Piasecki examines a “new phenomenon in socially responsible capitalism,” one that looks to business instead of government to solve society’s problems. World Inc. explores how “the corporations that can best address social issues by creating superior products will thrive and profit in this new world.”

Other books by Dr. Piasecki include In Search of Environmental Excellence: Moving Beyond Blame, the Nature Society's book of the year. His business articles have appeared in the Los Angeles Times, Baltimore Sun, Technology Review, and Christian Science Monitor.
