Conscious Campus was founded in 2012 by Greg Bura "with the intention of creating a company that would help make a positive difference on the planet both socially and environmentally. After over 20 years in the business, Greg realized that most Colleges and Universities needed to address these concerns too, and drew on the relationships he had forged to assemble Conscious Campus’s dynamic roster that addresses these issues in creative, engaging, and memorable ways."[1]
