Online Seminar: Greening the Community College: Win, Win, Win

For Campus Community Members Only

Thursday, June 18th          10:00AM-11:30AM

Snohomish Hall 304A, Cascade Conference Room

From digital controls for heating and ventilation to vehicle fleets consisting of hybrids and electric vehicles, green initiatives of all kinds are currently being evaluated or adopted by community colleges across the country. However, while these and other sustainability measures are gaining momentum, the prospect of implementing green initiatives in general is one that raises important questions for decision makers, such as:

• How does a community college get started in going green?
• How does it prioritize?
• How does it set a budget?
• What criteria does it use when evaluating vendors?

If your institution is considering going green but is not sure what process to follow, you will want to take advantage of our new online seminar on June 18. Led by Dr. Diana Van Der Ploeg, Greening the Community College: Win, Win, Win will provide you with strategies, insights and tips for successfully introducing sustainability initiatives to your campus.

Please register by sending an email.

Sponsored by ODET and the Sustainability Council.
