Environmental Sustainability
Like the tree in the Collegeβs logo, environmental sustainability branches across every aspect of our curriculum, campus, and programs
βAs someone deeply passionate about environmental justice and sustainability, ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ has given me the perfect space to explore these interests.β

Deep roots
Sustainability not only sprouts up in the coursework of more than half of the Collegeβs field groups, it can be found in our partnerships and activist efforts. The Robert Redford Conservancy for Southern California Sustainability and Firestone Center for Restoration Ecology in Costa Rica, give students a close-up understanding of climate challenges, resource management, and environmental stewardship.

ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Voices
βAt ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄, we are shown how living sustainably is a form of actively loving our planet. Cultivating a healthy connection with the Earth is not only important, it also leads to better personal well-being. I believe that it's honestly the bare minimum to focus on the environment in my collegiate pursuit because I value being here β on this planet.β
