About the Sustainability Passport Program
ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s Sustainability Passport Program’s goal is to increase employee involvement in and understanding of sustainability. The program supports individuals who want to become better advocates for sustainability on campus and fulfill the sustainability behavioral competency for ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø’s staff.
The Sustainability Passport Program allocates points to employees who attend sustainability-themed events and courses offered by the Sustainability Office in order to become more educated about sustainability on- and off-campus. There are three different levels of achievement in the Sustainability Passport Program:
Sustainability Associate (10 - 14 points)
Sustainability Advocate (15 - 19 points)
Sustainability Champion (20+ points)
The program has 244 participants to date from over 65 departments who are working towards advancing sustainability at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø.
Coming up! Oak Awards
In the next few weeks, we will be asking for nominations for this year's Oak Awards. These awards recognize outstanding sustainability efforts by staff, students, faculty, and organizations on campus. The recipients will be announced during the 13 Days of Green in April. Please begin thinking of nominations for those awards and be on the lookout for the nomination form in the upcoming weeks.
