See ER-5 for the methodology used to develop these numbers. For academic year 2008-09, this is a representative sample, not a campus wide inventory. Sustainability-Related courses = "I+": Implicit +: -Sustainability themes throughout the syllabus (course content, assignments, learning objectives, etc.), but not explicitly stated in a prominent way. "I": Implicit: -Syllabus makes connections between elements of sustainability in course description, learning objectives/course goals, major readings, assignments, but does not explicitly use the term "sustainability."
