Sustainabililty

Environmental Sustainability Committee

The Environmental Sustainability Committee (ESC) was established under the Student Association in 2007. The primary make up of the committee are students, but there is also widespread representation from across campus of faculty and staff, including the Environmental Sustainability Coordinator of UW-Milwaukee. ESC is also an assembly of representation from several student organizations that address an environment concern on campus.

The collaboration of different parties in ESC is to assess policies, practices, and procedures that will make UWM a more sustainable campus. ESC is also a platform to share information about projects and events that are going on around campus regarding sustainability.

ESC is currently drafting and editing a Sustainability Plan for UWM that will set direction for the campus, inform the Master Planning process, and potentially lead to an environmental policy for UWM.
