A brief description of each sustainability office:
The Center for Service & Sustainability is the central coordinating office for all efforts that fall under the Sustain Champlain initiative.
This campus-wide initiative strives to infuse sustainability concepts and practices throughout Champlain College by coordinating and promoting best practices within four areas: our institution, academics, operations and culture. Our staff serves as internal consultants, educators and resource people to the Champlain Community (within and beyond the College). We also collaborate with and support other departments and groups to provide campus programs that enrich the campus experience.
The Transportation Office - Transportation at Champlain College, including parking, shuttles, walking and biking, is managed by the Sustainable Transportation Coordinator, Nic Anderson. Nic is an avid biker, has a degree in Planning and has spent the last few years working as a planner for the City of Burlington and volunteering a lot of his 'free' time to local people powered transportation organizations such as Local Motion and Burlington Walk Bike Council. This position currently reports directly to the VP for Finance, but works in close collaboration with the Director for Service & Sustainability Learning.
