Students at Vanderbilt University CFACT practiced what they preached and took a hike to clean up Rock Island State Park in Tennessee! CFACT President at Vanderbilt University Grace Cancelmo organized the event with other environmentally concerned students and cleaned up the walking trail along the boundaries of the park.
Putting environmental stewardship into action is a core component to CFACT’s philosophy and one Grace wanted to highlight early in the year for Vanderbilt students to see. “Everyone had a blast getting out in nature and cleaning up the park,” said Grace “ We hope to hold more events and get the word out about CFACT and how to best steward nature for all to enjoy!”
The CFACT chapter at Vanderbilt while still in its infancy is making waves with students and increasing in number everyday! CFACT Associate Director Graham Beduze commented on the success of he chapter by saying, “ Vanderbilt students want what all students hope to see in a message and that is authenticity. Grace practiced what she preached and got her hands dirty and others were inspired and followed suit. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for Vanderbilt CFACT! “
