About Us
Our Mission
to improve environmental awareness and responsibility by working with the GSU students, faculty, staff and administration.
Our history
SAGE is now in its 11th year after having formed in spring 2000. Our attention has mainly focused on increasing awareness of recycling at GSU. SAGE received the "Student Organization of the Year" award in 2001 and again in 2006. Special thanks to our ex-presidents for all their leadership and inspiration (in chronological order): Brooke Brandenburg, Chris (#42) O'Neil, Jocelyn Coulter, Paul Phillips, Hannah Goddard, Nick Fierstos, Brian White, Sherri Cannon, Will Russell, Jessica Sparrow, Juliette Jordan and Chase Patrick.
