Brandeis Sustainability Committee

The Brandeis Sustainability Committee is charged with holding Brandeis accountable for improving our sustainability performance in both education and operations. The committee will provide a place for regular communication with the Brandeis community about sustainability concerns and where, by having the right stakeholders at the table, we will have a process for addressing and resolving issues.
