Call for Nominations: 2025 Sustainability Champion Awards
Cal Poly Humboldt is accepting nominations for its eighth annual Sustainability Champion Awards program, to recognize faculty, professional staff and students whose practices have deepened a culture of sustainability, have furthered the integration of sustainability into academics, student life or campus culture, and/or reduced Humboldt’s environmental footprint. Complete this form by Tuesday, April 1st to nominate a faculty, professional staff or student staff member for an award.
Self-nominations are accepted. Winners and their nominators will be notified by Friday, April 11th. Those with sustainability in their job title or with sustainability as an obligatory aspect of their job (e.g., Office of Sustainability staff, Sustainability Librarian and the Faculty Sustainability Fellow) are not eligible for the award.
An award selection committee will choose up to three candidates who embody the spirit of innovation, collaboration, and leadership as they work to establish solutions to pressing challenges facing the campus and society. Each Sustainability Champion will receive a trophy and a feature profile in campus publications.
The awards ceremony will be held in April during Earth Week, a series of events in celebration of Earth Day.
