In 2018 OHIO embarked upon a university-wide restructuring effort to elevate sustainability efforts throughout every college, department and division. Led by the Office of Sustainability and utilizing feedback gathered from the senates and other campus sustainability experts, a strategic plan was developed that included the creation of a new Sustainability Committee co-chaired by the provost, vice president for finance and administration, and vice president for student affairs.
Included in the restructuring was the creation of Sustainable Infrastructure, Sustainable Administration and Sustainable Living Hubs. In alignment with university priorities, the Hubs act as a sustainability engagement ecosystems and utilize the 91原创 campuses as laboratories for sustainability initiatives. The Hubs unite staff, faculty, students and community participants to advance sustainability initiatives in thematic areas.
