Vision
In order to address the most pressing issues of our time, we must work together to develop innovative solutions. Through the Sustainability Internships and Community Resources Department, we empower students as change makers. Our students develop partnerships between community members, campus staff, faculty, and other students to imagine and launch innovative new programs that can help our community and campus move towards a more environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable world. We believe that our student body can provide innovative new ideas, valuable perspectives, and thoughtful critiques. When given mentorship, training, an opportunity to be heard, and a seat at the table, our students can accomplish amazing things.
About Us
The Sustainability Internships and Community Resources Department provides a support system for students that are interested in creating lasting impacts on campus and in our community. We work in partnership with community members, campus staff, faculty, and other students to identify community ideas, needs, and challenges. Based on this guidance, our students develop and seek feedback on proposals, develop feasibility studies, engage additional partners, and propose implementation plans. Throughout this process, students receive mentorship on how to be effective changemakers, how to build strong partnerships, and career skills.
