Eco-Representatives (Eco-Reps) are undergraduate students who educate their peers and other community members about environmental issues and encourage them to live in a more eco-friendly way.
- Eco-Reps have a desire and advocate for sustainability and other related issues.
- They develop informative & fun sustainability programs and events.
- Eco-Reps think of new ways to make Rider a more environmentally friendly campus, working together with ESSC, the Director of Sustainability & Special Events and the Graduate Assistant to organize campus sustainability projects and other special events. They also work with other student groups and campus departments in order to spread sustainability across campus.
- Eco-Reps plan, organize and implement information sessions around environmental topics and present to the 91做厙 students during specified times throughout the year.
- Each Eco-Rep is designated specific residence halls and Greek buildings on the campus. It is their responsibility to keep their dorms informed on upcoming events and updated on programs such as Campus Race to Zero Waste (Formerly Recyclemania) or energy competitions.
- Another way Eco-Reps keep the student body up-to-date on eco-topics and Riders sustainability efforts is by creating quarterly newsletters and posting regularly on social media platforms. Follow the Eco Reps @broncsgogreen on Instagram and X and @RiderLawEcoReps on Facebook.
Eco-Reps are focused on fulfilling two goals:
- To work on projects that will help reduce Riders environmental impact
- To raise awareness about sustainability and the connection and impact each of us have as a global community
