A brief summary of papers, guides, presentations, and other resources the institution has developed to share their sustainability experience with other institutions:
UW-Whitewater has been an active participant in the UW System Sustainability Meetings since their inception in 2009. This includes a presentation on campus lighting technology, campus outreach strategies, and a student representing UW-Whitewater on the annual student panels. The sustainability representatives also maintain contact through regular teleconferences.
Additionally, our campus has participated in the planning efforts for this annual meeting and has contributed to the SustainQuarterly newsletter. We also presented at the AASHE – UMACS Faculty Leadership for Sustainability workshop at UW-River Falls, which was the first regional workshop of the national program sponsored by AASHE twice per year (at Emory University and San Diego State University).

Maintaining strong statewide connections with the UW System will be increasingly important as we look toward more collaborative relationships that allow institutions to share resources and best practices to deal with fiscal challenges. Sustainability is historically an area of open communication and collaboration, so remaining intentional about this effort will help facilitate continued networking.
