A brief description of how the institution engages in public policy advocacy for sustainability, including the issues, legislation, and ordinances for or against which the institution has advocated:
As a private non-profit organization, there are significant restrictions on the kind and amount of lobbying that Pacific can do without jeopardizing our nonprofit status.
In order to ensure that we do not violate these restrictions, the institution undertakes no advocacy activities except very selectively on matters that have a direct impact on the viability of the institution (such as the current proposal for a 44% cut in Cal Grants to our students).
We allow and encourage the members of the Pacific community to be engaged in advocacy on matters of their choosing, but that is done in their capacity as individual community members, not as representatives of the University.
