"Achieving true sustainability requires a long-term commitment to rethinking every aspect of modern life so as to preserve a high standard of living while respecting the natural environment. There are no simple answers, but the answers are there for those with the discipline to take a systems perspective, the imagination to break out of incrementalism, and the perseverance to work from concept to reality. These are hallmarks of the NJIT approach that builds on a tradition of excellence in environmental studies and unites expertise across its diverse base of academic professionals." -- Dr. Donald Sebastian, Interim Provost and Sr. V.P.
