Abstract and Research Question
Research Question: Is there a gap between student awareness of environmental sustainability on campus and efforts by the administration and student groups?
Abstract: Students conducted informal and formal interviews, an online survey, and a focus group in order to determine student awareness of environmental sustainability. They concluded that there is a disconnect between the appearance of what Clark University is doing to be sustainable, and what Clark University is actually working on. The findings also show that Clark students believe the administration can and should be more collaborative with student sustainability groups.
