Does the institution have an active student group focused on sustainability?:
A brief description of the student group:
There are at least nine student groups that meet the criteria for this credit, well beyond what is required for the credit. Here we highlight the Environmental Resource Center (ERC), a student-run organization affiliated with the Department of Environmental Studies and funding by the Associated Students and Transportation Solutions. The ERC was established in 1967 and is responsible for the annual Earth Day celebration, and environmental library, and other projects that promote sustainable living. The ERC started the campus recycling program and the alternative commute-planning program that has now grown into Transportation Solutions. The ERC serves the student body and their supporting affiliations by undertaking a wide range of sustainability projects each year.
