Name or title of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:
Sustainable Faculty and Staff Provided Materials

A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome that outlines how credit criteria are met and any positive measurable outcomes associated with the innovation:

Our office administrators focus on sustainable options for college materials - particularly ones provided to staff and faculty by the cost of the college. Some examples include: Refillable B2P (Bottle To Pen) recycled plastic pens, refillable white board marker kits for faculty, Post consumer material printer/copy paper, among others.

While this might seem like a small innovation, this is not something typically done across an entire college - nor something considered for the waste reduction and commitment to sustainability, particularly in daily activities and materials. This affirms a commitment to sustainability from the college even a a lower level, to walk the walk where possible.
