Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

There are many other sustainability-focused courses that have not been counted because the assessment was based on courses caring the 'environmental literacy' designation. Upper level courses may not be designated as fulfilling the environmental literacy requirement if a course pre-requisite carries the designation.
