Environmental Stewardship Committee

A brief description of the institution’s featured program, initiative, or accomplishment:

In February 2013 the Hanover College faculty created the Environmental Stewardship Committee.
Responsibilities: The Environmental Stewardship Committee reviews the College’s procedures and practices that affect sustainability and environmental quality and education for the campus and for the larger community and world. These procedures and practices are embodied by the college’s Environmental Policy and Core Value 6 of the Strategic Plan and might include materials chosen for the activities of the College; use, reuse, recycling, and disposal of materials; energy use; environmental quality of living and working spaces; transportation and parking; sound and visual environments of the campus. The Committee develops ideas for improvements or expansions of practices, educates the College community about good stewardship, and makes recommendations to the President and Cabinet for new practices or expansion of existing good ones. The Committee may also take action by organizing programs to elicit others to join in improving environmental quality.
