<li>How do we know it’s a problem?<ul style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">

<li>~~INSERT~~The landscape management and development is put into place through a campus comprehensive landscape plan. This plan is neither transparent or inclusive of student values.</li><~~/ul~~li>Effectively, the landscape utilization and development is reflective of "SIUC Culture," and it does not reflect the student and faculty's need for sustainable development.</li>

</ul></li>

</ul></ul>--- How ~~might~~ can we provide a platform to inform ~~new students about existing opportunities~~university resource allocation with student & faculty values? ---<ul style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: 400; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><li>~~Project Name~~STUDENT SUSTAINABILITY COALITION (SSC)<ul style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">

<li>“The Student Sustainability Coalition (SSC)is a student-led organization with the purpose to synergize interdisciplinary efforts toward sustainable development across SIU Departments, registered student organizations (RSOs), and the broader Carbondale community. The intent of the SSC is to initialize a communicative platform for inclusive knowledge and resource-sharing via the development of a mediative student voice which is precisely representative of our rich and diverse Saluki culture. The SSC’s committees will structure and prioritize sustainable development initiatives on campus in a manner which supplements the SIUC Sustainability Office’s mission and the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals."</li>

</ul></li>

<li>This will immediately improve the campus experience of students by creating a communicative platform for value and resource sharing between students, faculty, administration and staff, and Carbondale community members. In the longer term, this shall allow student values to inform transparent resource allocation and landscape management, ultimately propelling campus down a critical path of sustainable development; therefore, ensuring a more decentralized socioeconomic balance in student organizations. This will also improve the students "sense-of-place" as avenues to express their culture onto the landscape infrastructure are implemented.</li>

Each committee individual must be part of an existing RSO unless the committee reaches a unanimous 'special circumstance.' Each committee shall have 2 co-facilitators, and 2 lead facilitators will mediate between and act as ambassadors for the three committees.~~ ~~Each committee will coordinate themselves and recruit RSOs and faculty advisors to inform direction and strategic planning.</li>

</ul></li>

<li>~~INSERT~~It has already begun. We have partnered with a wide number of stakeholders and have strategically been building a mass of student interest. Soon we shall bring attention to larger scale socioecological shortfalls of the university's current land tenure and resource allocation systems. "The Evergreen Community Model" is a three point action plan to sustainably develop an intercultural housing community on campus, successfully moving forward. With the SSC adopting this, perpetual student engagement with current stakeholders: Carbondale Park District, University Housing, etc, will be ensured.</li>
