Description: The purpose of SAS is to promote environmentally sustainable practices for URI and the greater Rhode Island community. In the past we have participated in campus clean-ups, conferences on clean energy, and promoted important environmental issues ranging from climate change to the BP oil. We're also dedicated to campaigning for the preservation of our local 100 year old forest- the North Woods. And we're always open to new members and fresh ideas so feel free to stop by!

Location: Memorial Union, Room 304

Other Information: We meet every Monday from 6:00 to 7:00 in room 354 of the Memorial Union
