A brief description of the program, including examples of peer-to-peer outreach activities:
The Sustainability Student Worker Network is comprised of student workers in departments all across campus who are either hired specifically to work on sustainability projects or spend some of their allotted hours to work on sustainability projects in their department. All students are served either directly or indirectly by the students' programs.
A brief description of how the student educators are selected:
Students self-select or staff designate them for inclusion in the program.
A brief description of the formal training that the student educators receive to prepare them to conduct peer outreach:
In the beginning of the semester the student workers gather for a training session to spend time reviewing each others' positions and personalities, brainstorming potential project ideas, learning how to interact with the professional staff to create institutional change, and how to perform effective outreach campaigns. The network meets every 2 weeks during the year for additional support and training.
A brief description of the financial and/or administrative support the institution provides to the program (e.g. annual budget and/or faculty/staff coordination):
The wages of the work are provided institutionally through student work awards. Student coordinators from Facilities Services and the Sustainability Office organize the network meetings. Additional funding for projects may be available through the Sustainability Small Projects Fund.
