- Campus Sustainability

Catalog description

An interdisciplinary examination of fundamental sustainability concepts, including community-based climate solutions, designed to foster a sense of community and provide students with service-based experiential and experimental learning opportunities. Along with weekly mini-lectures and academic reading discussions, students will participate in tours and hands-on “work days” in the North Woods, Community Garden, and on-campus compost site. Students will also examine infrastructure, institutional systems, and personal behaviors with a sustainability lens as related to their lived experience in the residence hall and on campus. Open only to, and required of, students residing in the "Gardenside" sustainability special interest housing.
