Joan Gussow was my classmate, my professor, and ultimately my thesis advisor. If you want to know where the concept of sustainability comes from, see the message below. /as Dear SNEBers, I cordially invite you to the premiere of "Cultivation," a documentary film by Gioacchino Taliercio that captures the essence of Joan's "Nutritional Ecology" course. The film give a real sense of the challenges within our food system, and hope for the future. I have had the honor of teaching Nutritional Ecology alongside Joan for the past 3 years; this course transforms how students see the world, how they practice nutrition, and how they live their lives.
