Please be on the lookout for a joint email from the Lehigh Sustainability Council and the Office of Sustainability in April that will include a link to a survey that will help our office better understand student, faculty, and staff behavior and attitudes toward sustainability. The campus-wide survey will be available online for 3 weeks. Our office plans on using the results of this survey to better plan sustainability programs, outreach, and operations for the campus as a whole.
In keeping with Lehigh's Sustainability Plan, the university is accepting GreenFund proposals on an ongoing basis. If you're hoping to make a sustainable change on campus, applications for a GreenFund grant are due on the first of each month. For eligible proposals, a one-time grant of up to $2,000 will be awarded to facilitate the project. Project proposals should advance sustainability operations on campus; have a clearly defined, measurable outcome; incorporate publicity, education, and outreach; demonstrate innovation and creativity; and show potential to continue beyond the duration of the project.
Please visit sustainability.lehigh.edu/greenfund for applications and additional information. For questions regarding selection criteria, contact the GreenFund at greenfund@lehigh.edu.
