Yes

A brief description of the mentoring relationship and activities:

When the Vermont Campus Sustainability Network dissolved in 2017, a less formal relationship among the Burlington area campuses formed. Campus sustainability professionals at UVM, Champlain College, Saint Michaels and Community College of Vermont meet quarterly to support each other. We share our work plans, opportunities for collaboration and get advice from each other. Because UVM is the largest and most established office with the most tenured staff, we often act as a mentor to the other campuses present, however it is a mutual relationship and we absolutely learn from them as well.
