Ladder of Engagement

How the Ladder of Engagment works

Hamline's WasteLess Campaign is driven by the motivation and support of the students, staff and faculty on campus. Through voluntary engagment, the Hamline community spreads awareness, promotes sustainable behavior and makes visible change. By "climbing" the ladder of engagment, anyone is able to participate in sustainbility work that aligns with their personal level of time commitment and knowledge of a particular task.
