Andrea Frank describes a community initiative to prototype the transformation of education as we know it and to create a campus culture of trust, cooperation, and connection. Eddy at New Paltz, named for the swirls in a river that circle back, magnetize, and build energy, explores horizontal, collaborative organizing to break down hierarchies and barriers between students, employees, and surrounding communities. Eddy started from the realization that the systems and methods that brought us here won’t take us any further as our current educational practices and structures support a paradigm that incentivizes competition, oppression, separation, and destruction. Eddy uses embodied strategies to develop initiatives that explore how we might live, learn, and educate around values and practices that are care-driven, playful, relational, restorative, just, sustainable, and focused on the long-term well-being of all beings. Eddy’s adaptation of processes and tools from the Presencing Institute’s u.lab2x transformative change framework sparked an interdisciplinary team to imagine and implement change. The co-created formats focus on social and environmental justice and sustainability, through which community members can express themselves freely and build trust, resilience, and agency.
