Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
UWRF does not specifically explain how we address the environmental, social, and economic dimensions of sustainability in our strategic plan, as we refer to a “broad definition” of sustainability that is not entirely consistent with the STARS definition. Our campus has not adopted an official definition for the word “Sustainability”.
