The Sustainability Office is currently located at the Administrative Services Office, Room 236. This location provides the Director’s Office, storage space for materials, access to Administrators, records, shared office space for interns, and access to conference rooms. Reception, clerical, and purchasing assistance is provided by Administrative Services. We have also just created a sustainability database to be used by staff, students, and faculty.

The Director's responsibility is four-fold, bringing leadership to campus sustainability in operations, teaching, outreach and research. The Director reports to the Provost/Vice-Chancellor of Academic Affairs and to the Vice-Chancellor for Administrative Services.
