Earth month TU Quick Polls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All Temple students, staff, and faculty will see new questions about sustainability in TUportal<\/a> throughout the month of April from the 2nd through the 25th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Every few days you’ll be asked about your personal values and actions when it comes to the environment, your thoughts and preferences on sustainability infrastructure and programs, and sustainability in your academic program or your professional role as a staff person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Help us help you!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your answers will help us plan programs that will benefit the Temple community for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Everyone who answers all Quick Polls questions is entered for a chance to win a one-of-a-kind tumbler made with recycled glass by Tyler School of Art and Architecture Glass artists and makers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
