Greenbelt Community residents are required to enroll in a one-credit course each semester they live in the community. Learn how to live a more sustainable lifestyle while becoming a change agent for sustainability on Furman’s campus and in your community. All classes are taught by faculty and staff of the Shi Institute for Sustainable Communities.
Some classes take place in the beautiful outdoor classroom located directly behind the cabin next to the Furman Farm.
SUS 200 will introduce you and your fellow residents to the multiple facets of sustainability, encourage you to experiment and live a more sustainable lifestyle, and provide you with leadership training for promoting campus and community sustainability.
SUS 201 is designed to help you and your fellow residents develop and implement sustainability projects on campus.
