    The ECO Challenge is a semester-long experiential learning activity in which interdisciplinary student teams develop solutions to specific sustainability issues on the OHIO campus in order to maximize profit returns while also positively impacting the Ohio University community. This year, my team's proposal that OHIO's Facilities Management and Safety department begin to replace its combustion-engine utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) with more efficient and sustainable electric alternatives won the competition and will be implemented by the university throughout the next several years.
