Campus as a lab (CAL) is a program that aims to advance sustainability among other objectives at universities and allows for increased research mobilization, student learning, and movements towards societal changes. This research project aims to incorporate CAL into the School of Natural and Behavioral Sciences at Brooklyn College by identifying a course that already incorporates some of its main ideas and facilitating the transition [EESC 1060]. This project will focus on providing examples to improve sustainability, especially in water usage, and will aim to incorporate these ideas into the course curriculum and into the department as a whole.
