Faculty, staff and students can serve as Sustainability Ambassadors for their departments, administrative units, or student organizations. The ambassador network strives to create a more sustainable campus through the establishment of partnerships and sharing of information about sustainable research and practices across the campus community.
Sustainability ambassadors meet once a semester to learn about campus sustainability initiatives, tour sustainable features on campus, discuss issues of sustainability at WSU, and collaborate on solutions to the challenges we face as a campus. The expectations and opportunities of ambassadors are listed below.
