Sustainability Coordinator:
-Karen and Lee met with Ed Harman (head of grounds) and Deb (from facilities) about specifics in how a sustainability coordinator could greatly enhance the Bryn Mawr campus
-Ed has a lot of sustainability project ideas but doesn’t have the time to get all of them going
-Deb brought up the point that someone who can help carry over student sustainable, green projects would help move projects along more quickly
-Found a previously put together job description for a sustainability coordinator
-Have some descriptions from other colleges
-Have to figure out who this person would report to and under what department

We will make a google doc to share links for job descriptions of sustainability coordinators at other colleges and places – Karen will send out a link and please add to it!! 

Next meeting – coming up with a description of how a sustainability coordinator would help Greens
