Environmental Coalition

ECO’s goal is to organize a monthly meeting for all environmental groups on campus to come together to discuss their initiatives/ projects for the upcoming semester. With the idea being that each environmental group will send at least one “representative”. Hopefully this will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and increase the transparency surrounding environmental initiatives on campus.
