Great Days in New Ways!

Using COVID-19 to Push Sustainability Forward

By: Van Sullivan, Executive Director, Stony Brook University | Moderated by: William Hurley, Professional Development Coordinator, National Association of College Auxiliary Services (NACAS)

This webinar will discuss finding ways to keep sustainable packaging for different styles of service, operational hurdles for trash pickup, and how to tell your campus' story to keep sustainability programs alive. Learn how speed, safety, and sustainability can coexist, as well as how food waste and food insecurity have been affected as a result of COVID-19, and what can be done to combat them.
Abstract: Many campuses have been forced to rapidly adjust dining options as a result of COVID-19, which has required creative solutions to continue offering students safe options despite limited operations. Unfortunately, single-use plastic containers have only become more prevalent throughout global food service operations in an effort to reduce spreading the virus, but this has resulted in a backslide for campuses' sustainability efforts.

How to Transform Your Learning Environments for COVID-19

Space Planning for Healthy Classrooms

By: Tyler Patrick, Chair of Planning and Urban Design and Principal, Sasaki; Dano Weisbord, Executive Director of Sustainability & Campus Planning, Smith College; Rob Sugar, Planner & Designer, Sasaki | Moderator: Tyler Patrick, Chair of Planning and Urban Design and Principal, Sasaki

While it’s daunting to have to reconfigure classrooms and reexamine pedagogy and campus operations, in the best light this pandemic offers an opportunity for rapid experimentation and innovation. Panelists from leading planning and design firm Sasaki and Smith College discussed how institutions can dig into their existing classroom data to engage in scenario modeling and clearly understand how classroom capacities and scheduling will shift this fall.
Abstract: COVID-19 has turned the world of higher education upside down. After years of wondering if online learning would ever replace place-based learning, it suddenly did . . . literally overnight. Yet, for all the creativity and engagement we’ve managed to squeeze out of Zoom and other online platforms, many students and faculty long for a return to the physical classroom. Will anyone ever complain about an 8:00 AM or Friday class again?
