Student Environmental Movement 

The ÀÏ°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½¿ª½± is a student organization focused on environmental and sustainability concerns since it was established in 2007. The group is responsible for a pollinator patch on campus in front of the Mandel honors college, storm drain stenciling across campus, and various events to promote environmental awareness, volunteering, and sustainability. The Student Environmental Movement is a great way to stay up to date and engage in environmental issues and sustainability both on campus and in the community.

The Student Environmental Movement hosts a variety of hands-on events for students including monthly beach clean-ups, weekend hikes, camping trips and stream monitoring events.

The Student Environmental Movement implemented a large-scale pollinator patch garden in spring 2016. The group planted roughly 600 native Ohio genotyped pollinator plants in order to create a wildlife habitat on campus. This area is a sanctuary for numerous species in downtown Cleveland and a consistent source of forage for pollinators throughout the growing season. It contains roughly one dozen perennials that require little upkeep. It also provides a seed bank to propagate native plants to start other gardens in areas that lack resources for pollinators.
