Form a Green Team Today!
In order to support the efforts of sustainability with the university, the dean’s office faculty and staff has formed a Green Team. It doesn’t take a lot of effort to create a Green Team or to get certified. In fact, you may all ready be recycling bottles and paper, powering down your computers and copiers, and shutting off lights at the end of the day. Make a commitment to become more sustainable! I strongly encourage you to create your own Green Team and show your support to the environment. For more information, go to the Green Teams and reach out directly to Jordan Schanda, Sustainability Coordinator.
