The INVSTÌýProgram's Summer Field Studies are Life-Changing

ÌýÌýWe stayed with undocumented families in Chicago, while learning about the history of the immigrants' rights movement. I went to my first protest that summer, and the following year got involved organizing around the Colorado ASSET Bill (to allow undocumented Coloradans to receive in-state tuition, which ultimately passed). It was transformative.ÌýÌýÌý

2025 Climate Justice Augmester

From August 4-20, 2025, we will offer the Climate Justice Summer through the Department of Geography, a life-changing event & the last offering from The INVST Program before we dissolve. For those who typically work in summer, we offer a stipend to replace missed wages. We can also refund you for the tuition fee. Scholarships up to $3,000 per person are available. This unique travel opportunity focuses on environmental sustainability, power, equity and social justice. Join us as we travel to New Mexico and Arizona on an unforgettable journey.
