The Sustainable University EN 103 Final Reports
These final reports are collaborative efforts detailing the work of undergraduate students at Clark University enrolled, during the past three years. In addition to reading and writing about the challenges of sustainability and the role of the university in promoting sustainable practices in society, the students in this course engaged directly with the challenges associated with promoting sustainable behavior and fostering institutional and social change through team projects right here on the Clark campus. The reports are a culmination and summary of the team projects that students developed.
