The Sustainability Initiative of Manhattanville College
Last year marked an incredibly successful Environmental Sustainability Awareness campaign that SGA co-sponsored with ACT (Achieving Conservation Together) our student-run club dedicated to "greening up" our campus. Motivated by this success and student enthusiasm Manhattanville has joined with other college presidents and chancellors to support the American College & University Presidents Climate Commitment organization. By doing this, Manhattanville commits to taking many steps in pursuit of climate neutrality. Chief among these are to create a plan to achieve and initiate tangible actions to reduce greenhouse gases. To serve as the institution’s oversight committee, Greg Palmer, Vice President of Operations, will chair a committee made up of members of the faculty, student government, as well as Katie Cariello, ACT President.
