The Environmental Science and Design Research Initiative (ESDRI) was excited to be able to offer competitively awarded seed grant funding to research teams in Spring Semester 2018.

As the semester comes to a close, �鶹��ý is asking faculty and staff to reduce campus energy consumption over winter break (Dec. 23-Jan. 2).

The greenhouse gas emissions reduction was equal to taking more than 50 passenger vehicles off the road for one year.
