Office of Sustainability & Campus Enrichment
From its inception as a land-grant institution in 1876 to the additional sea-grant and space-grant designations, Texas A&M University has been a leader in research and education for how we interact with—and impact—our environment. In March 2008, the Office of Sustainability was founded to enhance these efforts by creating a culture of sustainability in Aggieland.
We work to respect, protect, and preserve the financial, environmental, and people resources that make Texas A&M and our community so great, not only for today, but also for future generations of Aggies. When Aggies commit to a sustainable lifestyle, we bring Texas A&M's core values to life.
Make sustainability an Aggie Tradition! Look for ways you can think globally, act locally, and shape our future.
