We have a responsibility to the environment and to our students to incorporate sustainable practices on campus and to broaden students' engagement and experience.

We strive to create and implement innovative solutions that can be replicated beyond our community. As a coastal campus, we must endeavor to limit our impact on local ecosystems while working to conserve natural space and biodiversity. It is our shared responsibility to foster a healthy, inclusive, and sustainable community. Our vision is rooted in confronting the challenges of climate change and sustainability by contributing positive social, economic, and environmental solutions that our students can take with them as they assume their own careers.

Sustainable Endicott is a College-wide effort to embrace sustainability in our scholarship and operations. The Office of Sustainability works to reduce the College's environmental footprint by engaging with the campus community and external audiences to increase a holistic understanding of sustainability issues.  Our mission is to help institutionalize pragmatic, timely, and effective solutions to create organizational change with a focus on climate and health.

Our commitment to sustainability includes:

• A Campus Sustainability Plan encompassing climate action, health & equity, operations, and experiential learning
• Signatory member of Second Nature’s Presidents’ Climate Leadership Carbon Commitment, confirming the College’s goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve carbon neutrality as soon as possible
• A College-wide Campus Sustainability Committee to help advance, prioritize, and evaluate Endicott’s sustainability initiatives;
• Coursework and curriculum development incorporating sustainability across disciplines in a variety of educational programs;
• Improved health and well-being for the campus community;
• Engagement opportunities for students, faculty, and staff.

Through these initiatives, Endicott earned a Silver Rating in 2023 from the Sustainability Tracking Assessment and Rating System (STARS), administered by the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE). Endicott has been consistently recognized as one of the Princeton Review’s Green Colleges.
