Working Groups

Overview

The PSC Working Groups, coordinated by the Office of Sustainability, are the engine driving the development and implementation of the Princeton Sustainability Plan. Each Group is chaired by an individual or individuals with decision-making authority in that subject area, with membership primarily from among staff, and faculty and student involvement throughout. The Office of Sustainability is responsible for guiding the reporting process, reporting the metrics developed by each Group, and communicating overall progress toward implementation of Princeton Sustainability Plan goals.
