SSL students work approximately 3-5 hours per week and receive $8.50-10 per hour throughout the year. Students will learn about current sustainability efforts at Duke and select an area of campus sustainability that they are passionate about. Working in a team, students will create change by researching, meeting with administrators and creatively outreaching to the Duke community. As a strong, collaborative community, SSL participants will meet together weekly to share updates and ideas.
