"Through Swarthmore's Environmental Studies program, I learned about the intersection of racial, environmental, and economic justice and became involved with Serenity Soular in North Philadelphia. These values and relationships have deeply informed my work to create green jobs in Philadelphia and to make solar energy accessible to all communities."
Laura Rigell '16, Solar Manager, Philadelphia Energy Authority
