Monday, 31 October 2011 10:06
The SUNY system holds its first large-scale sustainability conference this September! 85 participants – SUNY sustainability officers, and representatives from other state agencies and the private sector – gathered at SUNY Empire State College for the first systemwide conference for SUNY sustainability officers Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 19-20.
Thirty-two SUNY colleges were represented at the conference. (Who was there? Look to the end of this article.)
“We think we are pretty sustainable because we don’t have many of the activities that a traditional campus has, plus our modes of delivery to part-time learners leave a much smaller footprint,” said SUNY Empire State College President Alan R. Davis in welcoming the attendees to the conference.
More on SUNY's great "greening efforts" and why they're so committed to making a difference!
