Dr. Shelley Thomas is the founder and director of The Center for Accelerated Language
Acquisition [CALA], which is housed in the MTSU Honors College. After teaching French for 30
years at MTSU and serving as the CALA director, she is now retired and on the educational
outreach team for Save Soil. She is the featured speaker for our Spring meeting, a Facebook
Live event; use the address below to connect.
Save Soil, the largest of the global nonprofit organizations, is seeking to prevent our
planet's rapidly advancing soil extinction. It brings together leaders, scientists, and
citizens from around the world to support nations instituting national policies and
actions to increase the organic content in farmable soil.
As CALA director, Thomas was invited to Tamil Nadu in India 20 years ago by the founder
of the Save Soil movement. There she saw first-hand the development of successful Save Soil
programs, which have been noted in the Guinness Book of World records, adopted by the
Indian government, and presented at the recent 2022 COP 15 (Conference of Parties) annual
U.N. meeting on biodiversity. Thomas will present a simplified version of the problem of
desertification, explain solutions, and tell us practical ways we can make an impact right here in
Murfreesboro. Thomas will respond to questions as part of the program.
