Rachel Novick, Education and Outreach Program Manager in our Office of Sustainability, is a member of the Higher Education Steering Committee of the Catholic Coalition on Climate Change. Over the course of 6 months (December 2010-June 2011), the committee crafted a toolkit for sustainability mission integration. The purpose of the toolkit is to assist Catholic colleges and universities in integrating sustainability into the faith-based mission of their institutions. It will be distributed to University presidents and other campus leaders by the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities in Fall 2011.
