A brief description of the program, including examples of peer-to-peer outreach activities:
The Sustainability Student Advisory Board (SSAB) acts as the conduit between the University, the University Sustainability Committee, and the Assistant Director of Sustainability and Special Projects and the student body. Members of the SSAB are responsible for putting together the Creation Week celebration, act as the sounding board for many university operations offices, and help shape campus wide sustainability efforts that directly effect their peers. The SSAB is also responsible for engaging with the student body to help garner support for and excitement about the sustainability program.
A brief description of how the student educators are selected:
Students apply for the limited number of positions available on the board and must meet GPA requirements. Each classification of student is represented on the board, from Freshmen to PhD students. Applicants go through a two step process before being selected to the board: Application review and in person interview with the Assistant Director of Sustainability and Special Projects.
A brief description of the formal training that the student educators receive to prepare them to conduct peer outreach:
