The President’s Sustainability Action Committee (PSAC)
Although almost every organization on campus is engaged in sustainability efforts, the President’s Sustainability Action Committee, or PSAC, is the major group on Truman’s campus that initiates and coordinates sustainability practices. Since it was created, the President’s Sustainability Action Committee has spearheaded the Sustainability movement at Truman. Some of the committee’s responsibilities are to:
- Identify and evaluate ways to modify university practices to help them align with the principles of the Sustainability Initiative.
- Track the current state of sustainability related practices and develop a practical benchmark for assessing total progress.
- Provide regular advice to the University President regarding suggested best practices.
- Present an annual report of its activities to the University President that records progress on practices of interest and indicates future plans.
Here is the link to the most recent Annual Sustainability Report, created by the PSAC, which details our yearly progress. To view older reports and our Strategic Plan, click here.
The Environmental Sustainability Fee Accountability Committee (ESFAC)
The Environmental Sustainability Fee Accountability Committee strives to ensure the fair and beneficial allocation of the student Environmental Sustainability Fee. This student fee of $5 per semester was a student-led initiative implemented in 2015 by Student Government and other campus groups. The purpose of this fee was to allow for the implementation of large-scale sustainability projects on Truman’s campus and each year students have the opportunity to submit project proposals to ESFAC.
Sustainability Fee Project Slates (by year).
