Description:
AASHE and the NWF Campus Ecology Program invite college and university students from the United States and Canada to attend the 2009 Student Summit. The goal of the summit is to allow students to collaborate on projects taking place on their campuses, to share best practices, to learn about new and innovative initiatives, and to give students an opportunity to develop solutions to climate change on their campuses and in their regions. The event will offer several "how to" workshops, networking time, and a free-for-all breakout session where students will break off into groups to discuss topics of their choice.

**Notes:
