| Abstract: | An overview is presented of the comprehensive, whole-systems approach used at Ball State University to institutionalize its ongoing ‘greening of the campus.’ This approach bridges academic content, administrative policies, and facilities management practices. It enables a campus-wide unfolding of education for sustainability. Tracking the history, evaluating the progress, modifying the approach and continually refocusing the effort are presented as essential to a whole-systems approach. |
