A brief description of how the student educators are selected (1st program):
Sponsors are sophomores chosen at the end of their first year to mentor the following year's first-year students in the residence halls. Students are chosen on the basis of their responsibility, enthusiasm, and potential to be a successful mentor. Resident Advisors provide support in residence halls and are chosen on the basis of their leadership, responsibility, reliability, and enthusiasm for residential life at the college.
None
A brief description of the formal training that the student educators receive (1st program):
Sustainability is one of the three key pillars of residential life at Pomona, and sponsors and resident advisors are expected to engage in sustainability education and programming with students in their residence halls. Resident Advisors receive training in sustainability basics, programming, and outreach from both the Sustainability Integration Office and the Office of Campus Life. This training includes the distribution of materials to use in their residence halls (e.g. light switch stickers, the campus' green living guide, posters to post in trash areas) and a requirement that they pursue sustainability events and programming throughout the year. These students also receive priority for the distribution of compost buckets, drying racks, and other resources with the expectation that they will share these resources and information about them with other students.
None
A brief description of the staff and/or other financial support the institution provides to the program (1st program):
