Salaries & Status of Sustainability Staff in Higher Education: Results of AASHE's 2012 Higher Education Sustainability Staffing Survey
Walton, Judy
Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education
Among the most visible indicators of a shift toward sustainability in higher education is the increase in new staff positions dedicated to sustainability, along with support staff and offices. To provide our members with a greater understanding of these new positions, AASHE has been conducting a biennial survey of campus sustainability staff since 2008. Results of the 2012 Higher Education Sustainability Staffing Survey are presented in this report. Sponsored by Aramark Higher Education, this report provides information about the demographics, roles, salaries, and nature of positions of sustainability staff at colleges and universities in the U.S. and Canada. This report expands and updates the 2010 Higher Education Sustainability Staffing Survey report. Both surveys collected data for general sustainability officers as well as a number of focused sustainability positions, such as recycling/waste staff and sustainable energy staff.
