A brief description of the themed housing:
Sustainability Issues Thematic Community is located within one floor of the Eigenmann Residence Center
The mission of a Green Thematic Community is to provide space for a community that embodies, explores and spreads awareness of all things related to sustainable living. Issues surrounding the environment and sustainable living will serve as a vehicle for lessons ranging from biology to social responsibility. The Green Thematic Community will bridge the gap between academics and everyday living through interactions with faculty from SPEA, Biology, Geology and any others who might be interested. The Green Thematic Community would be about much more than recycling, it would be about reducing the collective carbon footprint left by a community and having as little impact on the environment as possible while at IU.
Programs related to sustainability are made available to the residents within this community such as field trips and movie series.
None
