Green Affair
Sustainability can be defined as meeting the present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.
According to
www.sustainablecampus.org, sustainability means reducing our footprint on the future and involves improving economic efficiency, protecting and restoring ecological systems and enhancing the well being of people. In terms of events, it means taking into consideration the impact that your event will have on the environment. Whether it's using only recycled materials or sending excess food to a local food bank.
The Event Management Office is dedicated to promoting sustainability in all our events, in cooperation with our
Mission Green initiative. Please read our
Sustainable Event Planning Guide for more information on how to make your event as environmentally friendly as possible and for information about the sustainability efforts of our catering department, visit
