See below for opportunities for current students to get involved with sustainability on campus!
Eco Reps
Eco Reps is an experiential learning program focused on developing students into sustainability leaders. The primary aim of the program is to get students actively involved in sustainability on campus or in the community through hands-on activities and projects. Eco Rep activities could include volunteering in the campus garden, helping with sustainability events, volunteering for local parks or environmental non-profits, providing sustainability leadership for campus clubs, and many more ideas. Students are mentored by professional sustainability staff and meet regularly as a team to plan, to share ideas, and to reflect on their experience. Students interested in becoming an Eco Rep may apply here.
Note: New Eco Rep positions are accepted only during the first two weeks of each semester.
Internships
Each year we have 7 – 8 internship positions available in the Sustainability Office. Interns are paid 6 hours per week to help facilitate and support sustainability programs on campus and in the community. Interns benefit from regular mentoring, real world experience, and the opportunity to pursue sustainability-related projects in their interest area. Current positions include a Publicity Intern, a Compost Coordinator, several Sustainability Peer Educators, and several “Ex Uno Fonte” religion and environment interns. All positions have significant flexibility for students to pursue passion projects of their own. Open positions are posted to Handshake around the first of April (for the following year) and occasionally in early November (for spring semester openings).
