Get Involved

Explore opportunities to support sustainability efforts across campus through peer education, research-focused programs, volunteer opportunities, and everyday actions that make a difference.

Sustainability Takes Participation

CSU’s sustainability efforts are supported by students, faculty, staff, researchers, and campus partners. Whether you want to share sustainability practices with peers, improve lab operations, recycle correctly, or reduce resource use, there are ways to get involved across campus.

Campus Sustainability Programs

These programs help connect campus community members with sustainability education, outreach, and practical support.

Peer Education

CSU Green Ram Network

The CSU Green Ram Network is a peer-to-peer outreach and engagement effort designed to advance sustainability understanding and practices at CSU.

Peer educators are recruited, trained, and supported by CSU sustainability experts to share sustainability education with their college, unit, department, office, or group.

What Participation Looks Like

Participants receive 2–6 hours of training per year and provide 2–12 hours of sustainability education, outreach, and support to their peers. Participation averages about one hour per month.

CSU GRN welcomes new volunteers who are passionate about sustainability and interested in engaging with peers regarding sustainability practices on campus.
