Sponsored by the Campus Coalition on Research and Education for Sustainability (members are the Environmental Change Initiative, ND Energy, Reilly Center, and the Minor in Sustainability). Questions may be directed to Barbara Villarosa, Rachel Novick, and Alex Gumm.

CREST is a core group of individuals affiliated with Notre Dame research initiatives and education programs who seek common ground on the topics of energy, environment, and sustainability. The primary goals of the coalition are to promote campus networking amongst faculty, postdoctoral, and student groups, to identify shared research interests within these various groups, to foster and build cross-college interactions and relationships, and to spur new or improved interdisciplinary research and classroom curricula.
