A brief description of the program, including examples of peer-to-peer outreach activities (1st program):
Residence Assistants (RA) and Residence Coordinators (RC) are chosen through a application and interview process. Out of the 98 RAs and RCs, a small group is selected as the Sustainability Committee. This committee responsible for promoting and educating students living on campus about how to live sustainable, what UNCW has to offer in terms of sustainable services and programming. For example, at the beginning of the year RAs will hold recycling box decorating parties. Because residence housing has recycling on the first floor, having a dedicated box in each room to fill with recycling encourages students to bring recycling downstairs.
A brief description of how the student educators are selected (1st program):
The positions are advertised in the fall and offer information sessions. Every application is individually reviewed by staff. A certain amount of students are invited back for individual and group interviews. During interviewed they are observed by student, graduate, and professional staff. Once the RAs are chosen, they apply for committees, and a percentage are assigned to the Housing and Residence Life Sustainability Committee.
