Athletics Eco-Reps is a student environmental leadership program that promotes sustainable lifestyles across Penn’s Athletics communities. Representatives support the University’s Climate Action Plan through peer education, projects, and outreach events. Eco-Reps strive to be constant models of environmental consciousness and challenge their peers to adopt a culture of sustainability.
The Athletics Eco-Reps program is open to all student athletes, and selected students will work together as a group throughout the year.
The Eco-Reps program is managed by sustainability staff in Facilities and Real Estate Services and is part of Penn’s Green Campus Partnership, a collection of students, staff, and faculty throughout the University promoting better environmental practices and policy.
Applications for Athletics Eco-Reps are currently closed. If you are interested in getting involved in the 2013-14 program, applications to join the Athletics Eco-Reps Green Team will be open during the fall semester. Please send questions to Julian Goresko at goresko@upenn.edu [1] or Dan Schupsky at dschup@upenn.edu [2].
