A brief summary of papers, guides, presentations, and other resources the institution has developed to share their sustainability experience with other institutions:
The director of the Center for Sustainability and the Environment serves on the steering committee and leads communication efforts for the New York Coalition of Sustainability in Higher Education (NYCSHE). The director of the Center was invited to deliver two presentations at the 2015 annual conference of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) in Minneapolis. Those two presentations were: The Seed of a Great Idea and Wandering out of the [Food] Desert. Wells also supported two students to attend and present at that same conference: they presented a poster titled "Lights Out", detailing a class project in their Psychology of Environmental Sustainability class. In Fall 2014, Wells supported the participation in and presentation by professor Milene Morfei, who is a co-author of the resource titled "Teaching Sustainability".
