USF Continually Strives to Implement "Green" Practices

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.
