The charter or mission statement of the CIR or other body which reflects social and environmental concerns or a brief description of how the CIR is tasked to address social and environmental concerns:
The OSU Foundation's Advisory Committee for Public Input on Investments is tasked to address environmental, social, and governance concerns about the Foundation's investment holdings. The advisory committee is comprised of foundation trustees, alumni, and staff who hear presentations from students, faculty, and other stakeholder groups and monitor larger national efforts around corporate responsibility. The advisory committee makes recommendations to the executive committee of the Foundation's board of trustees, which in turn may recommend full board action.
Additionally, the Oregon State Investment Group, a student-led organization, is charged with managing a portion of the foundation's portfolio and implementing such ESG strategies and negative screens which advance their investment objectives.

Examples of CIR actions during the previous three years:
With a unanimous vote, the OSU Foundation Board of Trustees formally created the Advisory Committee for Public Input on Investments at its meeting on December 6, 2013. Prior to this time the board's Investment Committee was tasked with monitoring issues of investor responsibility. The advisory committee held its first meeting in March 2014 and during the months that followed considered a proposal for fossil fuel divestment from a group of faculty and students. The advisory committee delivered its recommendation to the board's executive committee, and in August 2014 the OSU Foundation Board of Trustees issued its position on fossil fuel divestment: http://osufoundation.org/about/financial/documents/Fossil%20Fuel%20Divestment%20Statement%20-%20Aug%202014.pdf
