MenuPurchasing
With more than 2,500 full-time faculty members, 17,000 graduate and undergraduate students, and 5,700 full and part-time staff, the purchasing power of our campus is enormous. We advocate sustainable purchasing practices and consideration for “behind the scenes” environmental costs – such as raw material extraction, manufacturing, transportation, and final product disposal. Environmental consequences of these costs can be greenhouse gas emissions, air, water or land pollution, and harmful by-products during manufacturing.
