Green Leaders
A brief description of the employee educators program (1st program):
Green Leaders in the Green Office Network Program help to integrate sustainable practices into the daily routines of all other staff in their office. Green Leaders educate their peers about a range of sustainable behaviors, from turning off unused electronics, to printing double-sided, to stocking the office kitchens with reusable dishware. We keep members updated with the latest news, resources, and programs in sustainability on campus. Our vision is that Green Office Network members will not only help to reduce waste, decrease the university’s carbon footprint and more, but will also serve as messengers of our vision for a sustainable campus community.

RA Training
A brief description of the employee educators program (2nd program):
Resident Advisors serve as a vital peer-to-peer connection between students, support systems, communities, and the university. Whether having coffee with residents trying to settle on a major or trying to find their place at GW or leading programs and initiatives that support residents' interests, RAs each find unique ways to add value to their residents' experiences. The advice, guidance, care, and mentorship RAs provide to other students are what make the RA leadership role among the most impactful. Each year at RA Training, the Office of Sustainability sends a representative to provide training on sustainability ammenities and programs that students can take advantage of in their residence halls, from water bottle fillers, to low flow showers and toilets, as well as programs like GW Compost and the Eco Reps.
