Student Affairs Spotlight: SustainabilityAt UC Davis, sustainable practices support ecological, human, social and economic vitality for both our campus and the global community. Sustainable actions meet present needs while enhancing both the environment and the ability of future generations to thrive. Vice Chancellor for Administration Stan Nosek says, "It's vital that the sustainability message and mission be embraced far and wide across the UC Davis campus. We administrators can try to set examples and issue directives, but this sort of movement—of acting in the present with an eye on the future—can only succeed if it's embraced at the grassroots level—and widely so. Sustainability, in short, must be a community effort if it is truly to be sustainable." As students, what can you do?
