Overview
Sustainability is a core value at SUNY Oneonta. This means that along with inclusivity and service, sustainability is something that is infused into all aspects of the college- in academics, operations and engagement. You can see evidence of our commitment to sustainability in the student run Red Closet Thrift Shop, courses with sustainability designations in more than half of the academic departments, an active President’s Advisory Council made up of faculty, staff and students, and an overall commitment to supporting a community that is socially just, environmentally healthy and economically stable.
50% of departments have a course designated for sustainability in their academic course content at SUNY Oneonta
100% of paper purchased is made of 100% post-consumer recycled content and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council
Physical Science is our first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) gold building on campus.
