Did you know October is Campus Sustainability Month? This is an international celebration of sustainability in higher education, where colleges and universities organize events on campus and elsewhere to engage and inspire students and other campus stakeholders to become sustainability change agents.

To celebrate, the Office of Sustainability is hosting a Campus Sustainability Week. From Oct 6 – 10 we will highlight sustainable resources on campus and promote sustainable living.
