Three publications have come out on the topic of sustainability from ISU:
Al-Odeh, M, Stergioulas, T., and Badar, M.A. Economic Analysis for Two-Axis Photovoltaic Tracking System for Indiana State University Building. NED University Journal of Research.
Speer, J.H., Alexander1, M.R., Pettit, J.L., Whitaker, J., Flowers, S.C., Rosene, P.J., Lehman, A., and Kelley, A. 2012. The SENCER Teaching Model Applied to Sustainability to Make STEM Education Engaging. Greening of the Campus Conference Proceedings. 11p.

Students will have to analyze original data as they examine sustainability at ISU. They will also write a final report and present that report to the class and other classrooms around campus.
We installed a wind turbine on campus. The placement of the turbine was detirmined by the research of 430 ENVI 110 and ENVI 460 students. The turbine will be remotely metered used for future research.
The ISU community garden soil was tested for lead and arsenic by ISU researchers.
