MGT-5870: Policy, Law, and the Ethics of Sustainability Law and public policy shape the relationships between business firms and the environment, including the climate. The primary goal of this course is to learn to think critically about: (1) the relationship between business and the natural environment including the climate; (2) the existing legal and policy framework of environmental and climate protection, particularly in the US and its effects on what business managers are charged to do; and (3) the potential of business professionals to affect change in that legal and policy environment. The course will provide a grounding in the foundational concepts of sustainability and how those concepts have, and have not been incorporated into business strategy, environmental law, and business policy. As we address different topics in environmental law and sustainability policy, we will examine a series of case studies in which law, policy, and business intersect.

MNM-5151: Fundamentals of Nonprofits When individuals possess a passion for engaging in some creative or humanitarian work in the world, they sometimes assume that “starting a nonprofit” is the means to that end.

This course is intended to guide such individuals in learning about the nature, purpose, and structure of nonprofit and voluntary organizations within the American economic and legal context. After briefly reviewing the three basic purposes of nonprofit organizations recognized by the United States legal system (discussed in MNM-5150), it will examine the four essential functions inherent to the nonprofit structure and assist potential founders in developing an outline of a start-up plan.

MNM-5152: The Successful Nonprofit Start-up: Keys to Success The founding of a nonprofit organization is an act of hope and good will. It is also a project that inevitably confronts its leaders with many challenges: Who should lead? For how long and in what manner? How will we garner the resources we need to accomplish what we have set out to do? What resistance will we encounter? Who are the stakeholders? What kinds and levels of capital will be necessary for success (social, financial, natural, and human)? These are just some of the questions that founders and founding board members must answer. To equip them with the tools to put forward feasible answers, this course is intended to apprise would-be founders of some of the likely hurdles they will face and how not to be tripped by them.

MNM-5210: Development and Fundraising Development (also often referred to as “advancement”) empowers and supports nonprofits in doing the work of fulfilling their stated missions. If you think of a nonprofit organization’s programs as the essence of what it does for its cause or community, the work of development is that of garnering the resources necessary to make that good work possible. For many (though not all) nonprofits, the key component to resource development is fundraising. This course, therefore, focuses primarily on the fundamentals of fundraising, from preparing a fundraising plan through acknowledging and recognizing donors appropriately for their support.

NPM-3240: Social Change and the Nonprofit Sector Those possessed with a passion to make the world a better place will often envision starting a movement, or strengthening or reviving one that already exists. The instrumentality of social change, however, is normally neither an individual actor nor some loose association of like-minded individuals. In the course of US history, it has often been and continues to be the collective agency of a nonprofit organization. A survey of the history of civil society in the United States shows that nonprofits have formed coalitions to spawn movements of social change and, conversely, that significant cultural and economic institutions have been born of such movements. From the Abolitionist Movement that spawned abolitionist societies in the nineteenth century to the LGBT organizations that produced recent changes in marriage laws, the synergy between social change movements and nonprofit organizations has been a constant of American history. This course examines both historical dynamics in the interest of equipping present and future builders of movements and institutions with the knowledge of the forces that can support, grow, degrade, or destroy their efforts.

NPM-3400: Nonprofit Program Design and Evaluation At the heart of every nonprofit or nongovernmental organization is a program intended to serve some good purpose, whether to the benefit of society in general or, in some cases, the benefit of the members of the organization. But does it? Does the program in fact serve the organization’s stated mission? This is the question of “mission alignment,” one of three major areas of inquiry we will pursue. We will explore how nonprofits address or ignore this fundamental issue as they design, operate, and sometimes close programs. Related to this question is one of efficacy. The program may be aligned to the mission of the organization but is it being effective - and efficient - in fulfilling its stated purpose? This is the fundamental question of “program evaluation” and we will explore this subject also, examining how program evaluation is done. Between these two ends lies the area of program design. What does one need to do in order to arrive at the desired result? This basic question will be our third area of inquiry.

ORN-20: Prior Learning Workshop (Non-Credit) Prior learning credit is awarded for college-level learning acquired outside of a college setting. It must be documented by the student and evaluated by an AULA-approved faculty member in order to be credited to the BA degree. The three-hour prior learning workshop enables students to learn the philosophy, theory and process by which prior learning is awarded. Students write a sample proposal, explore methods of documentation, and learn specific criteria and rules necessary to successfully earn this form of credit. It is recommended that the prior learning workshop be taken no later than the student’s second quarter of attendance at AULA and, for students who have reduced residency, in their first quarter. Students may not propose or document prior learning without having first taken this workshop. This workshop can be taken more than once. No grade equivalents allowed.

PHI-4760: Ecological Existentialism This course, while philosophical in orientation, provides an interdisciplinary reflection on the existential question of how to live endings (personal, collective, ecological), here and now, today. To do this we will draw from innovative work being done in a variety of disciplines: philosophy, psychology, history, literature, art, thanatology, and anthropology among them. At the heart of the course is the constructive work of collecting, creating, and weaving together new conceptual language, new metaphors, new paradigms, to support and inspire us in the living of endings. The course undertakes this task by putting at least two scales of inquiry in creative tension with one another.: setting the personal, biographical, existential arc of a life in conversation with the global, historical, political implications of the ongoing ecological crisis. Students should complete the course with an informed, applied, interdisciplinary understanding of living endings.
