Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Regarding data discrepancy between IC 3 and AC 1 - AC 1 lists 9 academic departments because the credit asks how many departments offer sustainability courses. My understanding is that departments are facilities, human resources, etc. and academic divisions are faculties who offer the courses. We only have 9 academic divisions/departments who offer courses, so I’m not sure how to accurately report for AC 1
