Hey All!
Welcome to the newest addition to this site, The Green Fund Chronicles, where we give you all the best updates of NAU’s ever present environmental pursuits. In our first post we are letting you know about an awesome opportunity brought to you by NAU Green Fund. The Better World Film Series will be taking place every Monday throughout the semester; there will be films ranging from bags to cars and everything environmentally in between. Our hope is that we will get to see you all on Monday nights from 7-9 in the Gardener Auditorium in W.A. Franke College of Business.
