Sustainability Committee

Welcome to the Texas Woman’s University Sustainability Committee webpage. This webpage was created to provide TWU students, employees, and community members with resources and opportunities to facilitate more sustainable choices and to reduce our environmental impact. This committee combines the efforts of several predecessor committees to centrally coordinate sustainability efforts at TWU.

Our committee charter is described in University Regulation and Procedure (URP) 04.120 - Environmental Sustainability

By living a more sustainable lifestyle, we are also following TWU’s core values of caring, wellbeing, and collaboration.
