IU Students Doing Summer Internship Work

Last updated on Friday, July 31, 2015

(BLOOMINGTON) - More than a dozen Indiana University students spent this summer doing internship work to make the Bloomington campus more sustainable.

The IU Internship Program in Sustainability started in 2007 and is offered twice a year. IU's sustainability director William Brown says the paid interns are chosen from dozens of applications.

The interns are assigned to various groups. One student spent the summer gathering unwanted items from IU residence halls to sell them at low prices at the beginning of the fall semester. Another student worked on a new project cataloging the trees on campus with a database to help with emerald ash borer treatments.
