A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:
Every department chair was emailed and asked how many members of his/her department was participating or had recently participated in research. The chairs were provided with a brief description of STARS, and asked to give their ideas as to whether any of the research being done in their department was related to sustainability. This decision was left up to the departmental chairs as they were not only more knowledgeable about the research within their department, but also to involve more people in this process.
