Ranney School to Welcome Prize-winning Science Writer Andrew Revkin For Upper School Convocation
Award-winning author, New York Times science reporter, and committed environmentalist Andrew Revkin will deliver the keynote address at Ranney School’s 2008 Fall Convocation ceremonies.
Award-winning author, New York Times science reporter, and committed environmentalist Andrew Revkin will deliver the keynote address at Ranney School’s 2008 Fall Convocation ceremonies on Tuesday, October 7, in the new Panther Hall, located in the Lower School Academic Complex.
Revkin is an internationally renowned writer who has spent a quarter of a century covering subjects ranging from the assault on the Amazon to the Asian tsunami. He will speak to students, faculty and parents about his experiences as a journalist, environmental stewardship and the need for leadership in the environmental arena. Author of two books, The Burning Season, a biography of Chico Medes, and Global Warming: Understanding the Forecast, Revkin will also visit informally with Lower and Middle School students later in the day.
Ranney School Convocation began as a series of events in Fall 2003 to address issues of leadership, service and ethics from varying perspectives as part of a school-wide adoption of a comprehensive Honor Code. In past years, Ranney has proudly hosted a number of prominent speakers on its campus to address students and faculty on topics of global importance, including Steve McCurry, National Geographic photojournalist, and Frank Deford, senior writer at Sports Illustrated, author and commentator on National Public Radio.
