Purpose
- We fund sustainability projects that help the Stout community. Along with the mission of promoting sustainable efforts for the entire campus, the Sustainability Council controls the Green Fee.
The Green Fee is an allocable segregated University fee enacted to provide funding for sustainable projects, which follow appropriate guidelines for allocable segregated fees within Segregated University Fees (F50). For projects to be named sustainable, or sustainability centered, they must fall under the University of Wisconsin-Stout definition of sustainability: Sustainability is that which encourages students to think about environmental, social, and economic factors individually and in relation to one another and lead action in protecting them.
