Green Campus Initiative

USF Is Going Green

Eco Students Planting Trees in Shoaff ParkThe University of Saint Francis is making a conscious effort to be more environmentally-friendly across campus. The Green Campus Committee and student club, Eco, were created to promote education and activities on campus that foster a sustained world environment.

Various projects are taking place around campus. Join us in our next event or find out what you can do in your residence hall, at home, and even around town to help make a difference.

If you have ideas or would like to get more involved in the Green Campus Initiative, please feel free to contact us. You can also talk to any of the committee members: Ken Williams, Trina Herber Co-Chairs; Deb Bragg, Recording Secretary; Tom Buuck (Operations); Sr. Mary Govert (Campus Ministry); Mary Klopfer (SOCA); Maureen McCon (SOPS); Kristen Karrington (Admissions); Michelle Silcox (Financial Aid); Eric Toy (SGA), and Claire Wiedman.

Cycling Season is Here!

Bicycle traffic has been increasing on campus and all around the Fort Wayne community. With the trail system expanding and bicycle lanes added to roads, USF asks all drivers to be alert for signage and patient with bicycle traffic. Cyclists should be given three feet of space when passing.
