The Sustainability Team
Structure of Sustainability Governance
Our sustainability program at University of Idaho has been designed to permeate throughout the entire institution. Our Sustainability Director reports to the President, and our Sustainability Coordinator reports to the Department of Student Involvement. This structure of governance ensures that our efforts are not isolated to certain departments or areas of the university; we want every college, department, office, club and organization to be able to participate in and benefit from U of I’s sustainable solutions. Feel free to contact our team with any questions or inquiries.
