Welcome to the website detailing Hamline's sustainability initiatives, focusing on the curriculum and co-curriculum. Click on this tour image to go to the beta version of our interactive tour of the Hamline campus! We have three main goals (and several active projects -- see here for topics): Developing a leadership structure to advance the integration of sustainability into the undergraduate curriculum.- We have expanded the role of the Director of Environmental Studies to also direct a Sustainability program
- The Director of Sustainability's Office will establish a Sustainability Network on campus, using the Standing Committee on Sustainability to coordinate the enhancements in curricular and co-curricular sustainability education carried out by various hubs in this network
- Our goal between 2015 and 2017 is to train the Director, Sustainability Committee members, administrators, and Trustees to serve as sustainability mentors
Enhancing faculty understanding of and support for sustainability.- Educate faculty about the concepts of social, economic, and environmental sustainability
- Train interested faculty in ideas and techniques using outside expertise and local mentors
- Award Sustainability Curriculum Grants to individual faculty to facilitate curricular integration of sustainability (next round of applications will be reviewed 2/12/16; applications also accepted on a rolling basis)
- Provide funding for student-faculty collaborative research into sustainability (applications for summer projects due March 2016 -- along with the rest of the collaborative research applications; term-time applications accepted on a rolling basis)
Enhancing student understanding of and support for sustainability.Information about these initiatives can be found by following the relevant links.
