Faculty Please Sign Up!

By signing the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment on Earth Day 2008, President Michael K. Young has committed the U to infusing sustainability throughout the curriculum. 

The Office of Sustainability is tasked with developing and implementing a plan to accomplish this – with your help in a Sustainability Teach-In.

We aim to have more than 100 instructors at the U link their course material to a sustainability-related topic/issue in one class during the Teach-In week!

Participation

The Sustainability Teach-In will be preceded by a ‘Redfest going Green’ festival on Sept 18 and 19. 

Lectures and other events are being scheduled during, or close to, the Teach-In week.
