Information about the Sustainability Leadership (SL) Community
Warner Residential Learning Communities (RLCs) support students’ leadership development in natural resources, sustainability, and outdoor leadership. Sustainability Leadership (SL) students live and learn together; network with natural resources faculty, graduate students, student leaders, and community members; and gain professional development in natural resources and sustainability leadership. NR 192 Seminar course topics focus on sustainability principles connected to the environment, economics, and social equity. Service-learning activities focus on sustainability education and community engagement. Students have linked course opportunities with CO 150 in special sections focused on natural resource food, energy, and water issues.

All Warner RLC students participate in professional development experiences to expand their knowledge and skills and take part in service-learning and career exploration in their chosen fields of study. At the start of the fall semester, RLC students participate in programming at the CSU Environmental Learning Center. Throughout the academic year, there are special opportunities for engagement such as unique events with WCNR faculty and behind-the-scenes tours at the Denver Zoo. Annual traditions include the WCNR RLC Leadership Excellence Banquet in the fall and the CSU Banff Mountain Film Festival in the spring.

More information on community requirements and how to apply can be found on the Warner Residential Learning Communities site.
