Opportunities for Students
The CCU Campus and Community Sustainability Initiative is involved in the following projects:
Students for Environmental Action
The student organization SEA (Students for Environmental Action) is one way to get involved and help to improve the state of the CCU campus environment. For information visit the SEA website or e-mail Patrick Hutchins at prhutchi@coastal.edu.
CCU Recycles Project
Trixie Harrington of the Operations and Planning Department and the CCU Sustainability Initiative recieved a $10,000 SC Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) grant to promote recycling on campus. CCU Sustainability Coordinator Elizabeth Moses is working with the CCU Eco-reps and Professor Craig Gilman’s advanced environmental science class to conduct a pilot waste analysis, which we are calling the CCU Pile-It Waste Analysis. Professor Paul Olsen’s graphics class is designing a campaign to introduce the CCU community to the new recycling program, which will begin in Fall 2006.
