GETTING AROUND CAMPUS AND THE NEWPORT NEWS COMMUNITY • The Amtrak station is only 3.5 miles from campus! If you have a stop near home, consider using it to go home for visits and breaks. Train time is great for studying! • One of the main bus lines for our community has stops in front of campus on Warwick and one on Shoe Lane across the street from the Ferguson Parking Deck. Service is limited, however when traveling to centralized places like City Center or the Patrick Henry Mall there are direct routes from campus. Check out the Hampton Roads Transit page at gohrt.com for route information. • Bring your electric vehicle to campus. There is an electrical vehicle charging station located in the parking garage near the Ferguson Center for the Arts. • There are bike racks located outside of all CNU on campus buildings and we have three bike repair stations around campus available for student use.
NOW THAT YOU’RE A CAPTAIN • Check out the CNU Class of 2016 Community Garden. Applications for 4x4 plot rentals are open in the fall and the spring. • Keep current with us on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter at @sustainCNU. You can also use social media pages such as book trades or class pages. Often items are traded through these pages decreasing the need to purchase items new. • Connect with us! - CNU Sustainability works on a variety of projects all year that are relevant and open to students of any background. We also have resources, volunteering opportunities, internships, fellowships, and partnerships you can get involved with! • The Center for Sustainability in Education can help you connect with faculty to complete research. • The Office for Sustainability can help you understand sustainability opportunities here on campus. • Take advantage of some great sustainability organizations that we are members of: • Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education - Create an account with your CNU email to access resources on the member hub and a community of folks doing sustainability at other member campuses around the world. • Post Landfill Action Network - Use your CNU email to create an account to be eligible for discounts from a variety of eco-friendly companies.
