This is a list of projects that need students to work on. It will be updated periodically by sustainability staff members, the last update was 6/24/21:
- Develop informational messaging about SmartWay, get more UIUC departments aware of the program, and coordinate a related student event. Contact Morgan White at mbwhite at illinois.edu.
- Conduct a campus poll (fall semester 2021) regarding the Top 10 most iconic/significant/impressive trees on campus (including the arboretum). Develop an online survey tool (i.e., an online poll) whereby students and campus employees can nominate their favorite campus trees. Upon conclusion of the survey, work with Jay Hayek to tabulate and rank the results and create a publicly viewable ArcGIS Online StoryMap showcasing campuses Top Ten Trees. Prepare a presentation of results for the annual Arbor Day Celebration. Contact Jay Hayek at jhayek at illinois.edu.
