A brief description of the methodology used to determine the total number of courses offered and to identify sustainability course offerings, including the definitions used and the process for reviewing and/or validating the course inventory :
The most recent course catalog (2016-2018) was used to manually scan for course offerings including sustainability. Courses were designated as "sustainability courses" if the class subject was centered on more than 2 of 3 aspects of sustainability (environmental health, social well-being, economic prosperity). "Courses that include sustainability" were assigned if the course had a major unit, topic or project centered around sustainability aspects. The courses are continually reviewed by faculty and the college's Board of Study.
How were courses with multiple offerings or sections counted for the figures reported above?:
Each course was counted as a single course regardless of the number of offerings or sections
