David A. Kellner-Rode
Linfield College

David is a junior environmental policy major and political science and sociology minor at Linfield College in McMinnville, Oregon. He plans to pursue a degree in environmental law. His concern for the sustainability and quality of life on this planet has led to numerous projects which include founding a bicycle co-op on campus, participating in the Northwest Sustainability Challenge Alternative Spring Break program, and being president of the Linfield sustainability club. In his free time, David enjoys exploring Alaska (where he was born and raised), backpacking, snowboarding, playing soccer, and cooking.

How can you describe a weekend of student leaders from across the U.S. with an intense passion to change the world? The Orientation was a phenomenal experience to meet and build connections that I'm sure will last a lifetime.
