Recommendations of the President’s Task Force on Sustainability Spring, 2009

Task Force Membership: Eric Algoe, Laurie Anderson (Chair), Julia Brooker, Gene Castelli, Karen Crosman, Amy Downing, Jann Ichida, Steve Ishmael, Jim Krehbiel, John Krygier, Kim Lance, Bart Martin, Sara Nienaber, Jim Peoples, Carol Poling, David Robbins, Chris Setzer, Shari Stone-Mediatore, Jack Stenger, Chuck Stinemetz, Paula Travis, Barb Wiehe, Tom Wolber.

Charge: The President’s Task Force on Campus Sustainability is charged with developing recommendations that will lead to a culture of sustainability on the Ohio Wesleyan University campus. Specifically, the task force will examine the President’s Climate Initiative and develop a roadmap for fulfilling commitments made in the initiative and recommend a timeline for specific actions Ohio Wesleyan University can take to become more environmentally friendly.  The task force will present its recommendations to the president prior to the end of the spring semester, 2009.

We the Committee propose that before President Jones signs the Climate Commitment, we have a period of public comment to assess the reaction of the broader community.  Laurie Anderson and President Rock Jones will communicate information about the Climate Commitment in Faculty Meeting on September 14, 2009 as a starting point for discussion. We anticipate discussion at a second faculty meeting later in the Fall 2009 semester.

Please contact Laurie Anderson or any committee member with e-mail comments.
