Presidential Task Force: Sustainability

Committee Charge: To develop sustainability within Georgia Perimeter College that is integrated throughout our curriculum, operations and community engagement. Sustainability will be defined by our:

1. Knowledge of sustainability in theory and practice;
2. Actions as stewards of our communities and the environments we impact;
3. Leadership to build a culture of sustainability for our campuses, our communities, and our planet;
4. Emphasis on building reciprocal relationships between GPC and the public-at-large.

The task team will provide recommendations and action items that will be the foundation of a comprehensive sustainability plan. The committee will evaluate action items recommended by the GPC Think Tanks and identify sustainability targets and goals within the aspects of curriculum, operations, administration and community engagement. The committee will prioritize action items that will be subject for evaluation 1 year from the completion of the plan.
