Sustainability Core Value
The Sustainability and Learning Committee drafted and guided Lane's core value of sustainability through the college approval process. The new sustainability core value was officially adopted by the college in March 2007.

Sping Conference
The Sustainability and Learning Committee organized the programming for the sustainability-themed 2006 Spring Conference.

Curriculum Development
The Sustainability and Learning Committee applied for and recieved funding from Lane's Strategic Learning Initiative for sustainability curriculum development. During the Spring of 2006, the Sustainability and Learning Committee distributed 100 hours of funded curriculum development time to Lane faculty interested in infusing sustainability into their courses. Many more applications for sustainability curriculum development hours were recieved than it was possible to distribute. However, the Sustainability and Learning Committee has been working on developing new funding streams for this curriculum development project. Courses funded during the initiatial project included GED, Math, and Drafting.
