Analyst Comments
Hope College's website contains lots of sustainability information, touching on various issues related to environmental protection, recycling, green energy and so on. However, the site fails to provide any detailed description on the outcome of the programs and it does not set an explicit goal in any of these areas. The site also tends to ignore topics about employees, their working hours, free unionization, anti-bribery and anti-corruption policies or other policies for employees, which lowers the College's PSI score. Analyzed by Yuanxi Zhang, and posted to the web on 10/6/2010.
