Student Initiatives

We are especially proud that many students feel that sustainability is so critical to their educational experience that they choose to take it upon themselves to demonstrate their commitment outside of the classroom. These are some of the student-based initiatives that are happening at Georgia Tech. Also see the list on GreenBuzz. If you are part of an initiative and don’t see it listed here,
