Sustainability Report Card

My apologies for not posting until today.  We are in the midst of our annual career fair and we handle it ourselves through a student association.  Our students have a board with officers responsible for all aspects of the event.  They produced the promotional materials, send them out to recruiters and every other detail that is required to have a senior and recruiter student reception on Monday and a keynote, luncheon and career fair on Tuesday. Faculty and staff support their efforts by finding classes for the recruiters, managers, or staff or visiting companies to speak in while they are on campus. There is quite alot of buzz right now so kind of energizing, especially when our alums are coming back to recruit current students making it a little like homecoming.

But that is not what I wanted to turn you on to today.  Have you seen the sustainability report card?  Perhaps your school is filling out the annual survey on your sustainability efforts and worth looking at how you performed or even compare to competitors that are also doing the survey.

In the about us tab, the effort is described as:
"GreenReportCard.org is the first interactive website to provide in-depth sustainability profiles for hundreds of colleges in all 50 U.S. states and in Canada. Information is based on extensive research conducted for the College Sustainability Report Card."

I was pleased to learn that Purdue earned a B- against the criteria.  So if interested in the results of your school or wanting to learn more about the criteria check out the following website as it is most informative:
