The Sustainability Coordinators program serves as the sustainability committee for the campus. The group plays a vital role in disseminating information about sustainability polices, programs and initiatives. The main focus is on communication and outreach but can also create new initiatives and provide feedback to the Office of Sustainability. The goal is to have as many departments and buildings represented on the committee as possible. The coordinators are expected to serve in two year tenures on the committee but participants are allowed to renew their membership as many times as they desire. They meet regularly during the academic year and engaged in professional development over the summer.
Coordinators are expected to complete the following:
Complete required training
Communicate sustainability programs by posting fliers, educational material in buildings/offices, sending emails, posting on social media
