Raider profile: Sale Rhodes ’16

As a double major in Biology and Environmental Studies I have been involved in sustainability at Colgate ever since my freshman year. Working in the Office of Sustainability has given me the unique experience of interacting with my own peers in effort to perpetuate environmentally conscious behaviors and mindsets on campus. My interests are in waste materials and how to remove stigma to create opportunities for reuse, and the way that climate change impacts the multidimensionality of ecosystems, including humans, animals, and other life forms. In both scenarios there is opportunity to create full circle systems to induce positive change.
