Columbus State to Host Sustainability Fair April 5th

Staff Report From Columbus CEO

Wednesday, April 5th, 2017

Columbus State University will host “One CSU – Creating a Sustainable You,” a program and sustainability fair highlighting environmentalism, on Wednesday, April 5 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Due to severe weather forecasts, the event has been relocated from the clock tower to CSU’s Student Recreation Center.

The annual fair embodies one of CSU’s core values - sustainability. The goal of One CSU Day is to encourage and educate CSU students, staff, faculty and the community to adopt or increase recycling efforts and other behaviors that recognize and respect the environment.

The event promotes environmentally friendly programs and activities practiced by the university and local businesses. Several exhibitors will showcase the economic and environmental benefits of sustainability, and CSU will offer tours of campus so that attendees can view environmentally conscious projects in action. Attendees also will have the option of competing in a rock climbing competition or entering an art contest for prizes.
