June 2012 Announcement:
After 10 wonderful years with the Campus Consortium for Environmental
Excellence (C2E2),Tom Balf our Program Director has decided
to move on to an exciting new position in his home town of
Gloucester, MA.
The C2E2 Executive Committee has established
a careful process to manage the leadership succession this
year. A strategic planning meeting was held at Boston College
this past winter and a Request for Proposals has been issued
to identify a new Program Director.
This is an exciting phase in our evolution as an organization.
C2E2 is very well positioned for a leadership change with a
steady membership base, solid budget and strong reputation
as an innovative organization.
This leadership transition will
allow C2E2 to reach its full potential as it moves forward.
We look forward to the next generation of leadership as they
build on what we’ve started and take it to a new level.
We are hoping to have a new Program Director in place by August.
Stay tuned.
