A brief description of the methodology used to complete the course inventory :
Concordia College has identified courses that incorporate sustainability by completing an inventory, that involves distinguishing between sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses. Class information and descriptions were collected from the course catalog. The Sustainability Coordinator and two faculty members evaluated a list of course offerings and used knowledge about the courses to determine which ones fit into the sustainability-focused and sustainability-inclusive categories. When the relationship to sustainability was unknown, but suspected, the Sustainability Coordinator reached out the course instructor to confirm the involvement of sustainability in the course.

How were courses with multiple offerings or sections counted for the figures reported above?:
Each course was counted as a single course regardless of the number of offerings or sections

A brief description of how courses with multiple offerings or sections were counted:
Each course, regardless of number of offerings/sections/semesters, was counted as just one course
