A brief summary of additional ways the institution collaborates with other campuses to advance sustainability :
The sustainability coordinators in Ohio regularly communicate and meet to share best practices. In Fall 2014, sustainability professionals at all Ohio colleges and universities were invited to attend a Sustainability Summit hosted by Ohio University. Representatives from 13 institutions across the state attended the 2-day event in which sustainability initiatives at each institution, best practices, and challenges were discussed.
The Director of Sustainability at Ohio University serves on the NASPA (a national student affairs association) Sustainability Knowledge Community in an effort to regularly collaborate with institutions across the country. The Director of Sustainability presented at the AASHE (Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education) conference with a representative from Carnegie Melon University, presentation title: Sustainability and Student Affairs 101 and on the topic of Transparency and Efficiency in Sustainability Implementation and Reporting. In FY12 and FY13, the Director of Sustainability at OU taught an online course to faculty called “Greening Your Curriculum” in partnership with Waubonsee Community College (and, in turn, the Illinois Green Economy Network).
