A brief summary of additional ways the institution collaborates with other campuses to advance sustainability :

Our sustainability staff maintains contact and partnership with sustainability staff at are institutions, including the University of Northern Iowa, Iowa State University, Luther College, Central College, and the Maharishi University of Management. We gather as leaders in the fields, as needed. Each institution holds some version of sustainability forums, days, or recognition. Most recently our staff has helped the University of Northern Iowa during their forums, Iowa State University during their sustainability awards review process, and Luther College when they hosted UMACS. We communicate regularly, and share strengths to support each other as needed. In the past we have tried to gather semi-regularly, with mediocre success.
