When viewing the Sustain Applachian website, the first thing I thought was "hmm...this looks really plain and boring". While that may be true, it is also true that the website is very informative on a variety of topics relating to sustainability.
It took a while for me to find the 3 categorys: Energy, Travel, and Waste. I ended up clicking on every tab on the left side of the page to try and find these pages. It ended up being under Campus initiatives...how was I supposed to know that though?
The energy page seemed to be pretty good. It was really simple and straight the point.
The waste reduction page was alright. It should have given more information about how they came up with those figures.
The travel page was neat becuase it actually realted to the viewer on a personal level by telling stories of other students and their travel to Whales. The calculator was a great gadget to include.
I was really disapoined with the transportation page, especially the Boone Bike Initative link. There was hardly any information. It told you to email for more info. You shouldnt have to do that when your on a website. All the info should have been posted for you to read right there and then- like who to contact, who started it, how to rent or buy a cheap bike. I'd like a bike! but wait...where do I begin??!
Overall the site was good but lacked in places.
