In 2018, OHIO embarked upon a University-wide restructuring effort to elevate sustainability efforts throughout every college, department and division of Ohio University. Led by the Office of Sustainability and utilizing feedback gathered from the senates and other campus sustainability experts, a strategic plan was developed that included the creation of a new Sustainability Committee co-chaired by the provost, vice president for finance and administration, and vice president for student affairs.

Included in the restructuring was the creation of Sustainable Infrastructure, Sustainable Administration and Sustainable Living Hubs. In alignment with University priorities, the Hubs act as Sustainability Engagement Ecosystems and utilize the Ohio University campuses as laboratories for sustainability initiatives. The Hubs unite students, staff, faculty and community participants to advance sustainability initiatives in thematic areas.

For more information on the Hubs or the Hub coordinator position, or to apply or nominate a faculty member, please see this webpage.
