Abstract: This paper explores the creation and successes to date of an undergraduate minor program in Sustainable Community Development at Hobart & William Smith Colleges (HWS) in Geneva, New York. As a case study, it describes the program that HWS faculty created, the various components that comprise the undergraduate minor, some reasons why faculty chose to create a program based on sustainable community development rather than ″sustainability studies,″ the projects on which the students have worked, and some reasons for the success of the program. This program can be used by other colleges and universities as an alternative to programs that focus on sustainability studies only.
