                         THE GREEN EDGE FUND FEE

During the 2007-2008 academic year, Oberlin students initiated the Oberlin Ecological Design and General Efficiency Fund, which is commonly known as the Green EDGE Fund.  The goal of this initiative is to increase the College's environmental sustainability. which students hope will stimulate a greater campus discussion and awareness of green solutions to common problems.  Every student is assessed an optional $10 per semester fee, and additional startup money has been provided by the College to make funds available to support this initiative.    The fund is a revolving loan fund. A governing board made up of administrators, professors and students will review proposals and grant funds to student-designed campus energy conservation projects that have a clear and prompt payback to the fund.  Funds are considered paid back to the College when the cost of undertaking a project has been offset by the amount of energy savings the project has generated.  If you do not wish to pay this fee, please visit the Office of Student Accounts (carnegie 122) and complete a Green EDGE Fund waiver card by September 30, 2008

If you have questions, please contact the Student Senate at senate@oberlin.edu.
