  • At the Commencement Fair, future graduates took the green grad pledge and became a part of GW’s Green Alumni Network. By signing the pledge, students said, “I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organization for which I work.”
  • Held an event called “Green GW Trashion Show,” where students designed outfits made of recycled materials. The fashion industry is the second most polluting industry in the world.
