Quarterly Updates
Spring 2023
As the school year draws to a close, we celebrate the wave of support we received from the campus community for our No Time to Waste Resolution. We’ve ended the year with 1300 student signatures and endorsements from 8 college councils, 5 organizations, and the SUA. Enviroslug's primary objective is to have Chancellor Larive agree to our No Time to Waste Resolutions demands, however despite outreach efforts, the Chancellor has not directly responded and addressed this issue.
