This year is the 23rd Annual call for submissions from NWF which invites students to submit a case studies on their campus sustainability efforts and green jobs training programs. The August 31, 2012 deadline is rapidly approaching but it is not too late to submit your entry now.
Schools are welcome to submit more than one case study if you are working on multiple projects in different areas of sustainability and green workforce development. Case studies can focus on completed projects/programs or ones still in development.
NWF's Campus Ecology case study database is accessed nationwide by hundreds of students, faculty & staff. These case studies will be be shared with our contact list of more than 25,000 students, faculty and staff, plus our social media networks. Documentation of your efforts will appear in a searchable database (searchable by topic, state, year and school); the database currently has more than 650 case studies. This Fall there will be a national press release promoting the 2012 case studies.
Take these steps to submit a case study:
