Alternative Graduate School

Alison Cole and Ann Nguyen believe that designing human solutions does not necessitate an expensive graduate degree. They are designing a prototype for free and meaningful graduate level education in an ecovillage in Auroville, India!

Peer2PeerUniversity.org , an online opensource university program will have us design a program in arid land restoration for them! ReachTheWorld.org will allow us to communitcate with underpriviledged school children during our project as a new method of teaching geography and culture studies! CityOfDawn.org Filmmaker Paul Krakert will film our project along with others to show how our generation is creating alternatives to education and community building! Best of all, SailOPO.com is helping to facilitate a sailing opportunity for us so that we wont have to fly! Check out our project at www.alternativegradschool.org.
