According to the organization, the award recognizes an individual who has made significant accomplishments in keeping with the Girl Scouts’ movement “to leave a place better than they found it” and to use resources wisely.
Guyer, executive director of the University’s Environmental Assistance Office and associate director of the IDEAS Center, was honored for significant achievement in environmental leadership. A long-timer environmental advocate, Guyer worked for several years to educate K-12 students on how to make better choices for the environment.
