Hear. Feel. Think.

Good tidings, Caelum staff and students! My name is Aria Cadenza, a humble lecturer and student of music as it relates to our natural world. I'd be mendacious to say my latest town hall remonstrance of this spring's coming "Make It Rain" event hasn't left me ruffled, but the fight wages on!As I trust you are well aware, the Manderville or 'MGP' industry encourages frequent buying and discarding of fast fashion and prizes, leading to a massive amount of resource depletion and landfill waste, further exacerbating environmental problems. This poorly disguised abscondence to mother Hydaelyn must cease!

But, what can be done?
1.) Reduce Consumption: Buy less and choose high quality items that will last longer.
2.) Repurpose and Upcycle: Give faded or lightly worn materials a new life by upcycling them into something new. Arts & Sciences Faculty members are standing by to support with 'how to'!3.) Shop Secondhand: Look for personal crafter insignias at the bottom of items posted for sale your local market board.4.) Dispose Properly: Desynthesize any and all unwanted items for raw materials to be used again and again!5.) Hunt, Gather, Forage!: My monthly lectures on restorative practices benefit greatly from the generous contributions of spoils from our community's worldly endeavors. An open invitation to join in this stockpiling effort and a permanent place on the donor hall of fame awaits students and staff of any house!

Thank you for reading, and for taking part in this noble work. May your studies bring you joy and foster a life-long affection for and curiosity about this world we share!
- Ms. Cadenza
