Campus Sustainability Officer Position and Salary Surveys

AASHE periodically surveys campus sustainability officers about their salary and the nature of their position.

2008 Higher Education Sustainability Officer Position and Salary Survey (pdf) provides information about the roles, salaries, and positions of college and university sustainability officers.  The report includes data about when and why sustainability officer positions were formed, primary job duties of sustainability officers, organizational structure and reporting, and funding sources.

Greening Collegiate Athletics Survey

2009 Collegiate Athletic Department Sustainability Survey Report (pdf) shows that while sustainability efforts appear to be growing within collegiate athletics, commitment to sustainability is lower among athletic departments than compared to their institutions as a whole and to professional sports teams. The survey was distributed to the 119 athletic departments at National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly known as Division 1A) universities. 97 institutions - 81.5 percent - responded to the survey.
