Office of Sustainability
Sustainability refers to the capacity of a society to meet current needs without degrading the ecological, social, and economic systems on which the society will rely for meeting future needs.
For Berea College, “sustainability” refers to the capacity of individuals, communities, and societies to coexist in a manner that maintains social justice, environmental integrity, and economic well-being today and for future generations. Learn more about how Berea College plans for sustainability in the Subcommittee on Sustainability Charter Document. The story of sustainability at Berea College is one of creativity and commitment, grassroots organizing and institutional innovation. It is the story of dedicated students, faculty, staff, and administration—literally, the entire campus community.
