Sustainability
Located in the heart of New York City, The New School seeks to catalyze change by preparing students to succeed in an increasingly complex world. Studying design, social sciences, the arts, and interdisciplinary fields such as environmental studies, urban studies, and global studies, New School undergraduates are keenly aware of pressures facing the global urban environment and pursue opportunities to do something about it. As one of the first institutions to sign up for former Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s University Challenge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 30 percent by 2017, all of The New School’s direct-pay electricity is offset by renewable energy credits from wind power. The New School is looking to increase energy efficiency through lighting retrofits, HVAC commissioning and upgrades, and is building a 365,000-square-foot University Center striving for LEED Gold, which will serve as a locus for student engagement with cutting-edge sustainability practices. Compost is collected and biodegradable plates and cutlery are used in all cafeterias, which serve locally produced/organic foods. Each year, the Office of Career Development hosts “Careers with a Conscience” on environmentally responsible occupations. Faculty research in sustainability management, urban agriculture, and forestry, informs the curriculum while the Tishman Environment and Design Center serves as a crossroads for collaborations on environmental research projects. Multiple student-run organizations focus on environmental issues, like Renew School, an organization that brings students together to work on campus sustainability projects with the Office for Sustainability.
