Sustainability
Sewanee’s greening efforts run both wide and deep. The university’s recently completed Sustainability Master Plan aims to improve sustainability’s reach to all facets of the university. A signatory of both the ACUPCC and the Talloires Declaration, Sewanee has more than six full-time staff members working on sustainability initiatives. Currently, an estimated 25 percent of the school’s cleaning products are Green Seal-certified and 80 percent of the campus grounds are maintained organically. Students on campus benefit enormously from the focus on sustainability, as the university has implemented bike share programs and guaranteed rides home for students to decrease personal vehicle use. All the buildings on campus are linked to a central computer-operated climate control system, which saves the university money and energy. Sewanee also offers an environmental studies major and has created an environmentally- themed dorm called GreenHouse in addition to three other environmentally- focused theme houses. GreenHouse provides a backyard garden, programming space, and Hen Hall, a coup housing twelve chickens for eggs and educational purposes. The revitalized University Farm supplies food to the dining hall, giving students insight into the whole “farm-to-table” process. A farmer's market operates at the Sewanee Community Center weekly. Sewanee’s water conservation successes are a direct result of student-initiated change; students advocated for the installation of lowflow showerheads and toilets across campus, resulting in as much as a 60 percent reduction in water usage in some campus buildings.
