Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

The sustainability-related courses are those taught in one academic year (2010-11) listed as ENVS-crosslisted and bearing the ADJ designation. These courses are not central to the minor in Environmental Studies but can count toward it.

In Fall, 2011, the ENVS programs at Swarthmore, Haverford, and Bryn Mawr Colleges were harmonized so that ENVS-listed courses on any of the three campuses could count toward a minor in Environmental Studies.
