Background • Professional staff, graduate assistants, and resident assistants were surveyed in Fall 2012 about their knowledge and comfort level with sustainability. • One question that was asked was : does sustainability relate to social justice and leadership? • For leadership – most said they believe so. • For social justice – most said no.
