DEFINING ON-CAMPUS SUSTAINABILITY AT SARAH LAWRENCE COLLEGE

Throughout the course of the 2022/2023 academic year, students of the Sustainability Workshop have struggled to understand what “sustainability” means to Sarah Lawrence College. While “sustainability” can refer to a broad range of climate and eco-conscious related activity, without a common working definition of what on-campus sustainability is to Sarah Lawrence College, implementation of environmentally-focused policies have become ad hoc initiatives that have lived and died with incoming and departing student bodies, rather than lasting programs that would foster and develop an environmentally responsible campus. Given these challenges, students have worked together to compile this report to define what sustainability needs to be at Sarah Lawrence College.https://digitalcommons.slc.edu/undergrad_selectedworks/1013/thumbnail.jp
