Done


Sustainability Project:
-          Go to Sustainability Tour (booked for Wednesday, May 15 at noon)
-          Find out:
o   What projects relating to composting have already been implemented
Some buildings have small pilot organics projects going. The health reseach building is the first on campus to have a building-wide composting program. That said, most high-traffic areas on campus do not have organics bins.
o   What problems the Office of Sustainability faces regarding HUB mall
There is a multi-level bureaucracy relating to waste management in place everywhere on campus, but it has several more levels at HUB than anywhere else. There is also the problem of pre-consumer waste, which needs the cooperation of the vendors. Other problems include pest management, which is already a problem there.
o   What kind of permissions Melody and I will need in order to do a project
All of the levels of bureaucracy, most of whom will require more resources than we have at this time in order to be convinced to approve our project. 
§  Whether the people we will need to talk to are accessible at this time
§  Which kinds of projects require less stringent approvals
o   What kinds of sustainability projects the Office of Sustainability prioritizes right now
Reduction of energy consumption is going to be big next year.
-          Go to meeting with Janet (business librarian) to see if she has alternate resources to help us with our research
Janet gave us several good resources, the best of which was PMB, a site used by business professionals to gauge public interest in their business proposals.
