Campus Sustainability

Sustainable actions can take a variety of forms. Sustainability, itself, is comprised of three different pillars: 1) social, 2) economic, and 3) environmental. Here at SU, across campus our students, faculty, and staff are working together every day on various projects to address all three pillars. In 2024, SU launched the Gulls Go Green initiative to share information on our campus wide community efforts with the world.

The Princeton Review Again Names SU Among Nation's 40 Most Sustainable Universities

The Princeton Review Again Names SU Among Nation's 40 Most Sustainable Universities

SALISBURY, MD---°®Æï¼§ remains among the 40 most sustainable colleges and universities in the U.S., according to The Princeton Review.

For the 16th consecutive year, The Princeton Review, in partnership with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), has included SU in its Guide to Green Colleges, which highlights impressive environmental and sustainability programs at campuses throughout the U.S. and select institutions in Canada.

“°®Æï¼§ has long been a leader in sustainability in Maryland and on the Delmarva Peninsula,” said President Carolyn Ringer Lepre. “We are excited to continue that tradition with the ongoing renovation of our former campus library, Blackwell Hall, into a student services center, expected to be one of the first net-zero buildings in the University System of Maryland, eliminating all net greenhouse gas emissions from the facility. We are thrilled that this, and so many of our additional sustainability efforts, have once again been recognized by The Princeton Review as we strive to remain one of the nation’s ‘greenest’ campuses.”
