Students

RHA Eco-Representatives

The Student Eco-Rep program was created by The Office of Sustainability and the Bentley Residential Housing Association (RHA) in January 2010. Each residence hall has up to three Eco-Reps who serve as sustainability peer-educators. Students run for Eco-Rep positions in their residence halls during the RHA Hall Council elections each fall.  If you are interested in running, make sure to pick up an info packet at the Fall Activities Fair. To learn more about the Eco Reps and how to get involved, explore RHA's Eco-Rep Page!

The Bentley Green Society

Learn about the Green Society by visiting their Facebook Page! The Bentley Green Society's primary purpose is to educate the Bentley community on the environmental challenges that the institution and global community are face. It is the Green Society's hope that with education, the community will group together to solve these global problems. The Green Society runs the Blackout Challenge, RecycleMania and Earth Fest and partners with the Office of Sustainability in support of the Sustainability Film Series each year.

Think Outside the Bottle

Think Outside the Bottle is a campaign working to promote, protect and ensure public funding for our public water systems. Bentley students are working with the Office of Sustainability and Corporate Accountability International a local non-profit that works with campuses to support public systems by opting for tap over bottled water. Together, we are asking people like you to Think Outside the Bottle by pledging to opt for tap over bottled water. Learn more.

SGA Sustainability Project Group

During the fall 2009 semester, the Student Government Association created the Sustainability Project Group as a means to ensure that students are engaged in sustainability initiatives.  The group has been extremely successful in bringing changes to Bentley’s campus including the creation of informational Heating and Cooling videos to address student confusion over heating and cooling systems in the residence halls.
