Located 30 minutes west of New York City, ISE educates current and future leaders of business, government, nonprofit, and educational institutions about managing sustainably by focusing on products, processes, and services that add value to the organizations and are beneficial to people and the planet. Its strengths are its multi-disciplinary approach, its network of academics, executives, consultants and NGO representatives, and its ability to create collaborative dialogue about solutions to complex sustainability issues.

The Location:

Hennessy Hall (The Mansion) is the centerpiece of FDU's Madison campus. This 100-room Georgian-style masterpiece was built for Florence Vanderbilt (granddaughter of Cornelius Vanderbilt) and was designed in the 1890s by Stanford White. It replicates a wing in Henry VIII's Hampton Court. Most of its interior decorations (such as staircases and fireplaces) are in Italian marble, worked by Italian craftsmen. The chestnut-panelled Hartman Lounge was the former billiard room and Lenfell Hall, then a ballroom and drawing room, will be used for our Forum. (click here for details)(history of the house )
