SSG Allocations Commission
Please nominate WMU Â鶹´«Ã½s to the WMU Student Sustainability Grant Allocations Commission (SSGAC). The SSGAC is the decision-making body of the WMU Student Sustainability Grant (SSG) program. The SSG supports campus-based Â鶹´«Ã½ research, projects, activities, events, and initiatives.
SSGAC members review competitive Â鶹´«Ã½ grant proposals during Fall and Spring semesters and decide which proposals will receive grant funding. Members gain valuable experience working with a multidisciplinary Â鶹´«Ã½ committee. Members consider whether proposed grant projects have the potential to advance our campus culture of sustainability or lead to climate change solutions. The commission allocates up to $75,000 per year in new grant awards.
The SSGAC includes two graduate and nine undergraduate Â鶹´«Ã½s from WMU. Students represent all WMU colleges, and each undergraduate Â鶹´«Ã½ may be appointed and then confirmed by the Western Student Association.
SSGAC members are expected to attend occasional meetings called by the WSA Director of Sustainability, Grace, as well as allocation deliberations, which occur after Thanksgiving Break and again after Spring Break. Prior to deliberation times, training sessions may be conducted as schedules allow.
Nomination information requested below can be sent in an e-mail to Grace, the WSA Director of Sustainability at @email.
