Collaborative reporting. http://old.gcsu.edu/green/docs/Sustainability_Circle_Report.pdf A list of courses at GCSU that contain sustainability content and models for incorporation of the topic currently used at other universities were gathered. The list of courses at GCSU was obtained by directly emailing faculty. Since a general “call” failed to generate a response, specific faculty and department chairs were targeted and asked via email for either class information and/or recommendations of other faculty within their department. This list will provide a start to a directory of courses at GCSU that contain content on sustainability.
