After three long months of preparations, I am proud to announce the launch of Go Green, IUPUI!

Our organization was founded in March 2009 with a simple belief in mind: As a thriving university, we – the students, faculty, and staff of IUPUI – have a responsibility to ourselves and future generations to focus on improving the sustainability of our campus environment. Each and every one of us must take steps to minimize the impact that we have on our surroundings. We must make an unrelenting effort to pioneer new practices and enhance old ones to make IUPUI a green place to learn, work, and live. Advocacy and education are the means to this end.

We call on all members of the IUPUI community to help us build a grassroots movement dedicated to making our campus more sustainable. Membership is open to all students, faculty, staff, and alumni – and it will be easy to get involved. Numerous events are being planned for the upcoming school year, including speakers, forums, and service projects. Committed members will discover many ways of affecting positive change on campus through our organization.

So, what are you waiting for? Join Go Green, IUPUI! today and let us make our campus more sustainable together!
