Faculty and Staff Eco-Leaders

In 2005, the Environmental Center initiated the formalized faculty and staff Environmental Liaison Program. Over 50 building proctors, office managers, and department heads attended brown bag lunches on conservation topics tailored toward office practices, attended Eco-Leader orientation training sessions, and received a monthly e-newsletter.  Currently, the Green Office Program involves Eco-Leaders in a voluntary role. 

The duties of the Eco-Leader include:

• Attend one optional orientation training session.

• Utilize and share information provided by Green Office Program Coordinator.

• Receive updates and disseminate relevant information to their departmental colleagues.

• Fill out the Self-Assessment and submit it to the Green Office Program Coordinator.

• Review compiled list of gaps or areas that could use improvement and appropriate recommendations.

• If a department chooses to pursue Green Office Certification, the Eco-Leader will facilitate this process by scheduling the one-hour training program for their department. It is suggested that the presentation be incorporated into an existing departmental meeting in order to increase participation. The training presentation is conducted by Environmental Center staff.

• Train new staff on the department's environmental practices.  The self-assessment form can be used to guide training.

 

The Environmental Center has partnered with staff in Facilities Management, Parking and Transportation Services and other operational departments where appropriate to ensure accuracy of information and effective utilization of the Eco-Leaders. As you can see from the outlined responsibilities, the program is not intended to create undue demands on staff’s valuable time, but to create educational avenues. It is our hope that this program will build a community and culture of support for resource conservation on campus resulting in financial and environmental benefits.

Upon signing up,  Eco-leaders will receive an email containing information on the program, steps of certification, and useful information and links on sustainable office practices.
