Mission Statement
We aim to educate students, faculty and staff to embrace the values and principles of sustainability in their daily lives by integrating them into the University’s planning and policies, academics, operations, student activities and community engagement.
University Initiatives
Many of SF State’s initiatives are focusing on making the campus more sustainable. These new sustainability initiatives include reducing energy and water usage, increasing waste diversion, creating more alternative transportation options, offering sustainable dining choices, implementing green cleaning, offering eco housing, purchasing environmentally preferred products and planting native species. SF State committed to climate neutrality when President Corrigan signed the American College and University Presidents' Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) in May of 2007.
