A brief description of the institution’s assurance process:

The UH System Office of Sustainability utilized the AASHE STARS Review Template to identify & resolve data inconsistencies across UH campuses submitting a STARS Report this year.

The AASHE STARS Review Template was reformatted to review all UH campuses simultaneously to assure consistency in data entry and accuracy. The attached format includes columns designated for comments from both reviewers as well as data collectors. Additional columns are included to for the reviewers to sign off on the credit marked as "X".
