Greetings, Most of you are probably well aware, but just in case. The 2008 Sustainability Report Card: a Review of Campus and Endowment Policies was released yesterday. The Report Card gives 200 colleges and universities a grade on sustainability: from A to F. The full report is available at <http://www.endowmentinstitute.org/sustainability/CollegeSustainabilityRepor tCard2008.pdf > http://www.endowmentinstitute.org/sustainability/CollegeSustainabilityReport Card2008.pdf The College of William and Mary where I teach did pretty badly (D-) and the students have issued a press release to the local media. Would be great if you could share the reaction to these ratings on your campus and community.
Also, we are planning a one-credit Campus Sustainability Seminar in the spring. It will be organized around 4 speakers we will invite. We'd appreciate any ideas about dynamic speakers on these issues and if you have taught a course on campus sustainability, it would be great if you could share your syllabus.
