Albion College student combines fitness, sustainability in unique program

Chronicle of Higher Education reports on innovative project

The Chronicle of Higher Education recently reported on a project at Albion College in Michigan, led by student Catherine Game, which allows students to calculate how much energy their bodies produce while exercising. Students then pledge to use only as much electrical energy on a selected day as they personally generated over the previous month. The often surprising results provided an opportunity to connect fitness and sustainability in a concrete way.
