Promoting sustainability:  Volunteers needed to plan second Regional Institute on Sustainability

The University of Delaware Sustainability Task Force is looking for volunteers to help plan the Regional Institute on Sustainability (RSI) to be held on the UD campus during the fall semester.

After the success of the 2011 Regional Institute on Sustainability in Higher Education, the Sustainability Task Force (STF) has committed to hosting a 2012 institute. 

In addition to chairs for the overall event, STF is looking for chairs and members for the following subcommittees:

  • Oral presentation session
  • Poster session
  • Travel and conference services
  • Fundraising
  • Marketing and publicity
  • Partnership development with regional schools (see below)

Organizational meetings will begin soon. This year’s committee hopes to develop partnerships with regional schools with the intent of rotating institute hosting and planning duties.
