  • Sustainability

    St. John’s University’s Vincentian heritage informs its core philosophy that “higher education is about more than getting a job; it’s about learning how to make a difference in the world.” St. John’s is making a difference by committing to a sustainable future. The university joined the PlaNYC Challenge and pledged to reduce carbon emissions from energy use in campus buildings by 30 percent by the year 2017. To add an additional layer of accountability, St. John’s became the first private university to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Environmental Protection Agency to reduce energy consumption by on-campus buildings by at least 10 percent; develop plans for a combined heat and power generation plant; purchase hybrid vehicles for the campus fleet; and deliver five other programs covering everything from composting to landscaping in accordance with EPA guidelines. To achieve these measures, the university has established a Sustainability Office and hired seventeen student workers as sustainability coordinators. As if that wasn't impressive enough, St. John’s invested $100,000 into additional recycling containers for its main campus, tripling the number of recycling stations for every campus building. An extensive renovation of existing buildings is underway, and every major construction and renovation project on campus has been preceded by an energy analysis.
