by jbs110309b3 — November 6, 2009—The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) recently launched a Campus Sustainability Discussion Forums page on its Web site to offer a means for public participation in interactive campus sustainability discussions.
The forums are designed to provide a place for those interested in campus sustainability to ask and answer questions, share knowledge and expertise, and contribute to the growing body of knowledge on campus sustainability.
There are 17 forum topics, which parallel AASHE’s Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System (STARS) sub-categories: co-curricular education, curriculum, research, buildings, climate, dining services, energy, grounds, purchasing, transportation, water, waste, coordination and planning, diversity and affordability, human resources, investment, and public engagement.
The postings are accessible to the public, but it is necessary to log in or register to create new topics, post comments, or sign up for notifications of new posts.
