by Jbs021210 i3 — February 15, 2010 — Second Nature, a national nonprofit organization advancing sustainability in the higher education sector, is seeking applications for the 2010 Kresge Fellowship Program, created to address some of the challenges faced by under-resourced schools to “build green” on their campuses. The fellowships will provide free registration, accommodations and travel expenses (up to $2000/fellow) for fellows to attend one national green building-related conference.
Facilities directors, campus planners, and vice presidents of finance and business will be eligible for the fellowships through which they will be funded to take part in learning and networking opportunities, such as the 2010 Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) Conference and the US Green Building Council’s Greenbuild Conference. Fellows will also become members of the Kresge Fellowship Network.
In 2010, Second Nature will be awarding fellowships to 25 under-resourced institutions. For more information regarding the program guidelines, application form and other details, see the Kresge Fellowship Program page on Second Nature’s
