http://www.cvent.com/events/sustainability-across-the-curriculum-leadership-workshop/event-summary-e0fb6cdb8fcb4caaac71728950b78d50.aspx

Tuesday, January 10, 2012 - Wednesday, January 11, 2012
9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

AASHE's Sustainability Across the Curriculum Leadership workshops are for faculty leaders of all disciplines who wish to develop curriculum change programs around sustainability on their campuses.

January 10-11, 2012

Through an intensive two days of presentations, exercises, discussions, reflection, and planning, participants will become familiar with the philosophy of change in higher education developed through the Ponderosa Project at Northern Arizona University and adapted at Emory in the Piedmont Project. Participants will also experience a range of workshop strategies, hear local experts, enjoy outdoor place-based activities, and dialogue with faculty from around the country as they gain help in adapting this model to their own campus. In a supportive and stimulating environment, workshop members will reflect on their own roles in the transformation of higher education. Readings and materials will also be provided.

These highly successful workshops are led by Geoffrey Chase of San Diego State University and Peggy Barlett of Emory University. Peggy and Geoff are editors of Sustainability on Campus: Stories and Strategies for Change, published by MIT Press in 2004. Peggy and Geoff have many years of experience leading these kinds of workshops and have helped more than 350 faculty around the country take steps toward curriculum innovation in their universities and colleges.

Higher Ed Impact Report: A Road Map for Campus Sustainability

http://www.academicimpressions.com/hei_resources/0711-diagnostic.pdf 

A Letter From Amit Mrig, President, Academic Impressions

Whether your institution is driven by social values, economic reality, or political and market demand, the trend to become more sustainable is undeniable. Yet, with all of the momentum throughout the industry and society writ large, including more than 650 campus presidents pledging carbon neutrality, most sustainability efforts have a difficult time achieving meaningful gains.

Such efforts are often driven more by the individual will of a student, faculty member, or campus president than through smart planning, implementation, and resourcing. This reality was the impetus for the Academic Impressions Sustainability Road Map – a methodology that advocates for an integrated, scalable approach to campus sustainability, and one that can help generate broad-based support and buy-in.

We’ve gathered experts from the leading green institutions to share their insights on how to maximize the economic, social, and environmental returns on these investments. We hope their advice will be useful.

Diverse Issues in Higher Education: UNCF Green Building Institute Focuses on Helping Schools Find Funds, Save on Costs

June 20, 2011 by Jamaal Abdul-Alim

http://diverseeducation.com/article/15888/

WASHINGTON, D.C. – To tap into federal money to make campus infrastructures more energy efficient, college and university leaders must be strategic, collaborative and pay close attention to details when submitting proposals.

At the same time, grants should not be seen as the only source of revenue for green projects, and campus leaders should search for creative ways to finance the projects, such as using the savings from retrofitted buildings to establish “green revolving funds” to upgrade other buildings.
Those were just a few of the tips that Obama administration officials and environmental and finance experts provided at the UNCF Building Green Learning Institute held late last week at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill.

The institute -- the fourth of its kind and the first one to be national in scope -- drew several hundred participants from an array of minority-serving institutions and various green organizations throughout the country.

Discussions ranged from the importance of recycling and having students lead recycling initiatives, to updates on green construction projects, such as such a planned Center for Alternative, Renewable Energy, Technology and Training at Clark Atlanta University, to the importance of working with specific disadvantaged student populations to smoothen the path to various educational and work experiences in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields and the green economy.
A federal official also announced a forthcoming solicitation for a research and demonstration project that deals with drinking water treatment.

The institute comes at a time when cost-savings through reduction of energy consumption and other efficiencies are seen as a crucial way to offset the impact of budget reductions and other fiscal constraints that face U.S. higher education institutions today.

Meldon S. Hollis, Jr., associate director of the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities, urged attendees to form alliances with other like-minded individuals and put together detailed plans on their capacity and how the federal government can support their projects. Then, Hollis said, it’s a matter of finding the federal agency with which their plans are most closely aligned.

“Once you’ve done that,” Hollis said, “we can begin to manipulate our processes and procedures” to help the institutions achieve their efficiency goals.

Jeanette L. Brown, director of the Office of Small Business Programs at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, also emphasized the importance of collaboration when it comes to submitting proposals.
However, Brown lamented that too often proposals are not in line with the mission of a federal agency or lack detailed information. Further, Brown related that very rarely do minority-serving institutions make inquiries about where they went wrong on their grant applications in order to improve their chances of getting a proposal accepted in the future.
“If you don’t win, you should ask for a debriefing to find out why you did not make it, not based on what somebody else did, but what you could have done or what you did in your proposal that didn’t cause it to win so that you can build on that and win the next time,” Brown said.

“Over and over again,” Brown continued, “we see institutions making the same mistakes and people aren’t coming back and asking what happened. We owe you (an explanation). In the area of government contracting, this is the law. But we won’t tell you if you don’t ask.”

Patricia Durrant, the EPA’s national program manager for minority academic institutions, said that not enough minority-serving institutions are participating in green initiatives.

For instance, she said, of the 630 institutions of higher learning that are participating in RecycleMania, a project that involves benchmarking and competition among universities to promote recycling and reduce waste, only 28, or roughly 4 percent, are minority academic institutions.
“I know we can do better,” Durrant said of participation in RecycleMania.
Durrant also announced a solicitation that is expected to appear on the EPA’s Web site on June 20. It is called the “Research and Demonstration Innovative Drinking Water Treatment Technologies and Small Systems” and will be open for 60 days, with funds being awarded by Dec. 31.

However, one speaker at a panel discussion, titled “Financing Green Building,” suggested that universities should not count on grants exclusively to finance their green projects.

“Grants are not sustainable finance,” said Glenn Barnes, senior project director at the Environmental Finance Center in the School of Government at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
“Grants are nice,” Barnes said. “But the simple fact is you cannot count on getting a grant year after year.”

He urged attendees to explore the use of “green revolving funds” where you take the savings from a building that’s been made more efficient and invest it in other buildings, so that -- theoretically, at least -- the funds would “go into perpetuity.”

Dr. Nancy G. Maynard, project manager at the NASA Tribal College and University Project, spoke of ways to overcome the challenges faced by tribal college students in taking advantage of the program, which involves externships in the STEM fields.

“Some students may have never taken science,” Maynard said, adding that one way to make up for the lack of science instruction is to offer the students science prep courses in advance of their externships.
In order to pique and retain the interest of tribal college students, it is helpful to do green projects that are of practical use on Indian reservations, where housing is often substandard and greatly need of heating and cooling upgrades, Maynard said.

“Try to develop a project that has meaning for the student back home,” Maynard said. “A student is not going to be motivated to take physics or math or chemistry if there’s no reason or application at the other end.”

Morgan State University News: Morgan Students Go 'Xtreme' with Green Innovation- Group Designs Unique Phone App to Encourage Campus Recycling

http://www.morgan.edu/About_MSU/News/Morgan_Students_Go_XTreme_With_Innovation.html

May 24, 2011

Two years ago, NAACP President Benjamin Jealous congratulated the Class of 2009 at Morgan State University's 133rd Commencement, saying, "You will forever carry the badge of honor as the generation that changed the world before it graduated."

More recent events are proving that Generation Y at Morgan is still upholding the banner of positive change. A new organization on campus is harnessing the brainpower, idealism and fearlessness of members from many academic disciplines to come up with innovations to enhance the campus and the world.

It all started with a can of pomegranate soda.
Timothy Akers, Ph.D., Morgan's interim associate dean for graduate studies research, explains that he was looking for students to help create some new ideas using funding from a U.S. Department of Homeland Security grant the University had received in 2008. Last January, he brought a talented biology major named Vladimir Celestin into his office in the Dixon Science Research Center to talk about ways to get MSU students to "explode their thinking."

As the two brainstormed, Celestin eyed the can of pomegranate water that Dr. Akers was about to finish off.

"May I have that can, Doc?" he asked. "I really believe in recycling."
But once he had the object in hand, where would Celestin take it? As he explained to Dr. Akers, "There was a lack of emphasis on recycling here on our campus, and there was a lack of notification about where to go to recycle and how to do it correctly."

"That triggered an idea," Dr. Akers recalls. "I asked him, ‘How are you about working with apps for cell phones and things like that?' "
The solution that came out of their meeting was to organize a group of MSU students to create a mobile phone application that would send alerts to the users' phones when they were in the proximity of recycling units on campus. The high-tech solution would also require the development of special transceivers to transmit signals from the recycling units and receive signals back from the cell phones.

Celestin took up the challenge with characteristic gusto and soon had a group of 13 other students with majors ranging from history to industrial engineering to work on the problem. The group was officially established on Feb. 4, 2011 and called itself Xtreme, to highlight its commitment to "extreme thinking." Morgan Xtreme's mission is to "embrace complexity, explode thinking and learning and undertake an Xtreme challenge by conceptualizing, designing, developing and implementing Xtreme innovations for the marketplace." The mission statement promises that, "Failure will never be criticized but embraced."

Nathan Scott, a junior computer science major, wrote the Java code for the application, which works on Android phones. The other students worked on other aspects of the project, including marketing, advertising and construction of the recycling units. Michel Reece, Ph.D., MSU assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, leaped at the opportunity to help the students with the development of their transceiver.
On April 29, they successfully demonstrated their technology on the campus' Verda Welcome Bridge. The group has filed a disclosure for their invention, the first step toward filing a patent.
Celestin, Morgan's Outstanding Male Junior this year, says Morgan Xtreme is being built to last.

"First we're going to show the whole campus what we do. I'm talking about in the very near future, next semester," he says. "And afterwards we're going to be looking at different ways to introduce more students into the organization. That way the young, brilliant ‘extreme thinkers' that will be coming into Morgan will continue the cycle every year, and it will have no choice but to continue getting better and better and better."

Also in the planning are an annual Morgan Xprize Challenge competition, in which students will design and develop innovative, transdisciplinary projects; development of products to promote Morgan Xtreme and the Xprize Challenge; and a fundraising campaign for the organization and the event. Dr. Akers says some companies have already expressed a desire to underwrite the group's efforts.

"There is a hunger here, not just on Morgan State's campus but across the country for innovation," Celestin says, "and it takes certain groups of people, like Morgan Xtreme, to come together and address problems and come up with solutions to them."
