AASHE reserves the right to withhold points for this credit if it is determined that the assurance process was clearly unsuccessful in identifying and resolving inconsistencies or errors (e.g., when AASHE staff identify a significant number of issues that were either not mentioned in the completed review template or not resolved successfully).

A brief description of the institution’s assurance process:
Office of Sustainability team members were assigned STARS credits to collect data for and compile into the STARS online tool. Each person assigned to a credit could opt in to performing a self-check. Each self-check followed the same checklist as the 1st Review (based on the guidelines in the STARS 2.2 Technical Manual and the STARS 2.2 Review Template).

Once a credit was complete a 1st Review was conducted by a team member who had no participation in data collection or compilation for the credit being reviewed. If any revisions were required or the credit did not meet criteria, the credit owner was notified, corrections were made, and a 2nd Review was performed by another team member. The final status was updated after the credit was checked as complete in the STARS tool.
