Green Courses: Calling all TAs, instructors and course coordinators!

Calling all TAs, instructors and course coordinators!

Making efforts to save paper in your classes? The Sustainability Office has recognized 106 courses as “green” so far, and the deadline for 2011-12 recognition is fast approaching: Friday, Sept 16.

For anyone not yet familiar with the program, Green Courses was launched to recognize instructors and coordinators who have taken steps to reduce environmental impacts of their operations (e.g. double-siding course documents). The focus is currently on reducing paper waste, not on going paperless. Courses scoring enough points get a shiny logo to display on their website, as well as a slide to present to students in class.

All details, including the application form, can be found at uoft.me/greencourses.
