The Sustainability Leadership Group (SLG) serves as the executive sponsor for strategic decisions associated with sustainability demonstration on the Princeton campus. Its work is informed by the Sustainability Steering Council and any associated task forces and working groups.
The Sustainability Steering Council (SSC) is a gathering of senior faculty, administrators, and student leaders appointed by Princeton's Executive Vice President. Launched in 2013, the Council is charged with advancing the institution's overarching goal of using the campus itself as a demonstration of sustainable systems to inform and develop leadership potential in all students. The Council strives to ensure that students are equipped to meaningfully employ the principles of sustainability in their future endeavors, no matter the discipline or field.
The purpose of the Princeton Sustainability Committee (PSC) is to collaborate closely with the Office of Sustainability to monitor the University’s relationship with the environment and to encourage improvements by creating a forum for faculty, students, and staff to bring their different perspectives to bear on our relationship with the environment.
