“I’m glad that we got someone that seems very excited and has experience,” Enderle said.
This will be the college’s 12th year participating in Recyclemania, a competition encouraging schools to reduce waste on their campuses.
The college is not receiving the energy produced from the array directly — it is dispersed in the New York State power grid.
“This is definitely the year … that we can start getting programs running and having sustainability here,” Enderle said.
Now in his first semester as director of energy management and sustainability at Ithaca College, Greg Lischke says he plans to increase student involvement in sustainability programs and that the college has some renewable energy projects in early stages.
The Resource and Environmental Management Program is looking to have a student representative available in each residence hall to offer sustainable-living education.
