About REP :
Whether you want to help your House win the Green Cup, are interested in a job as a dorm-based environmental educator, or plan to create a similar program at another campus, you'll find resources here.
What is REP?
A unique peer environmental education program, the FAS Resource Efficiency Program (REP) relies on paid student representatives who share information with their dorms about sustainability, comfort, health, and efficiency issues. The Reps also provide suggestions to Harvard administrators about infrastructure and policy improvements that will remove barriers to student conservation. And, we have a lot of fun!
REP Captain Tasha Bartch '06, Kirkland Rep Erica Mitchell '06 and Lowell Rep Meredith Lanoue '06 participate in the Annual Waste Audit.
