The Committee on Campus Sustainability helps to advance, prioritize, and evaluate Endicott's sustainability initiatives and first campus-wide Sustainability Plan; it is made up of faculty, staff, and student representatives which can serve one year or multi-year terms. The Committee meets monthly during the academic year to discuss progress and goals as they relate to campus sustainability. Formal education is provided by the Office of Sustainability at meetings for individual members to directly educate their departments on campus and act as a liaison between staff/faculty (and students) and the Office of Sustainability.
