Does the institution's physical campus plan include sustainability at a high level?:
Yes

A brief description of how the physical campus plan or amendment includes sustainability:

We have demonstrated our commitment to sustainability by creating a new School of Sustainability and the Environment, that the Board approved in February 2009. The primary goal of the School will be to provide innovative, interdisciplinary education and research opportunities for undergraduate, graduate and professional students to better prepare them to identify and solve challenges related to sustainability and the environment. The School will be located at Eden Hall Farm campus, although its programs and activities will take place on all of the university’s campuses. The responsibility of the School’s dean will be to provide leadership of the School.
Similarly, the Eden Hall Farm Campus that Chatham acquired in May 2008 will be dedicated primarily, but not exclusively, to teaching, research and demonstration projects related to sustainability and the environment.


The year the physical campus plan was developed or adopted:
