Does the institution's physical campus plan include sustainability at a high level?:
A brief description of how the physical campus plan or amendment includes sustainability:
The Master Plan Steering Committee has reached consensus that the College should “aim to significantly improve [its]
sustainability profile.” Broadly speaking, the concept of
campus sustainability involves a thoughtful (yet imprecise)
measure of resources consumed and wastes emitted, and
the consideration of the long-term effects of these on earth’s
systems and on human health. Campus sustainability
initiatives include a broad range of actions, and encompass:
• Energy use, supply and distribution
• Material supply and disposal
• Food supply
• Water supply and disposal
• Building design and construction, including mechanical
systems
• Transportation
• Site and landscape systems: hydrology, soils, vegetation
• Education, research and outreach

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
“The master plan will serve as a living document and decision
making tool, providing guidance for the development of
the college well into the future. The plan will balance our
ambitions for academic and institutional development with
our commitment to sustaining the physical beauty of the
campus and its buildings. The plan aims to be comprehensive,
historically responsive and environmentally proactive and to
take into consideration what Haverford College has been in the
past, where it is today, and where it sees itself going in the next
quarter of a century.”
