Title A name given to the resource Energy Efficiency Potential Subject The topic of the resource Efficiency Description An account of the resource Though many capital projects have integrated energy efficiency in a more wholistic manner, there are a myriad of stand-alone energy efficiency projects with attractive financial and environmental benefits worth considering. These energy efficiency updates have the ability to enhance institutional solvency and help Vassar strive well beyond previously set GHG reduction goals. Efficiency projects also have the ability to attract a generation of students who are increasingly concerned with such issues as sustainability, energy use and climate change. This analysis looks to shed light on some of the budding ideas already being discussed on campus, as well as to show some opportunities not yet examined. If energy efficiency was strategically engaged campus-wide over the next 5-10 years, it is forseeable Vassar could both reduce GHG emissions and its utility budget substantially and be at the forefront of climate change mitigation.

Title A name given to the resource ENST 124 Final Report - Kloe Brown Subject The topic of the resource beavers Description An account of the resource The North American Beaver (Castor canadensis) is a keystone species that creates wetland habitats through dam construction, dramatically altering local hydrology and ecosystem composition. At the Vassar College Preserve, beaver activity has created a classic human-wildlife conflict scenario where ecosystem modification intersects with human infrastructure needs. Beavers construct dams and lodges as protection from predators, using trees typically within 50-100 feet of shorelines, sometimes digging underground to access more timber. This report examines my involvement in developing a management strategy that acknowledges both the ecological value of beaver activity and the practical needs of Preserve management.

Title A name given to the resource ENST 124 Final Report - Livia Ivie Subject The topic of the resource beavers Description An account of the resource A rise in the beaver population at the Preserve at Vassar College has resulted in flooding in several areas, causing various problems. Due to all the flooding along the Quercus and Wright trails on the Preserve, the trails have been closed. With the hope of reopening the trails, the Preserve staff have asked us to create a management plan to decrease flooding and protect a sewage line adjacent to the Quercus trail. This study uses research and knowledge to create a management plan to protect the sewage line from infiltration, preserve native trees, and reopen the trails for public use.
