Chapman's Sustainability Policy
Chapman University is committed to a campus culture that promotes a sustainable future.
This commitment is instrumental to Chapman's mission to educate ethical and informed
global citizens. As such, it calls upon all constituencies of the University to carefully
evaluate short- and long-term social, economic, and environmental impacts of decisions
before acting. The University demonstrates this commitment through sustainable practices
in strategic planning and ongoing operations as well as sustainability-focused educational
programs, research, and community engagement.
