The Office of Sustainability at Ursinus College supports student achievement by creating an atmosphere where creative, critical thinking about sustainability and environmental topics

is paired with conscious citizenship. We have programs that engage the campus community and offer opportunities for students, faculty and staff to participate in sustainability on the Ursinus campus on a day-to-day basis as well as periodic events. Our UCGreen Fellows program provides a select group of students with mentoring and opportunities to act independently on a variety of campus sustainability projects. As a program, we take an active approach to addressing complex campus-wide issues and we work collaboratively with stakeholders throughout the College community to build a more sustainable tomorrow. Our UCGreen programs, through multiple avenues, facilitate the synergistic development, implementation and evaluation of multiple sustainability initiatives across campus, from student volunteer opportunities to meeting our commitment to work towards climate neutrality. The Office of Sustainability's UCGreen programs support Ursinus as a leader in liberal arts education and sustainability.
