Our Mission

Hunter is bold and resolute in our commitment to set progressive targets, and to implement the innovative solutions necessary to continually improve upon our sustainability performance, facilitate more engagement and collaboration, and promote Hunter’s distinction as a green institution. 

In our mission we will:                                

  • Strive to integrate the principles of sustainability in business decisions.
  • Consult with campus stakeholders to identify sustainability goals and promote their achievement.
  • Measure and report on campus sustainability initiatives.
  • Evaluate and redesign our operations to reduce their environmental impact.
  • Develop our educational and research agendas to meet the long-term goals of sustainability.
  • Promote awareness about the consumption of natural resources by individuals and groups.
  • Encourage environmentally sound practices among students, faculty and staff. 
  • Seek strategic collaborations with other organizations to advance our sustainability goals.

"Given our huge stake in the future, I'm thrilled to be helping Hunter College lead the charge on climate change and shape the leaders of tomorrow."
