Buying Promotional Products Sustainably
¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ is committed to sustainability in our academic programs, physical campus and operations, and university mission by promoting environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic viability for current and future generations. This commitment is a collaborative effort that involves students, faculty, staff, and external partners.
With this commitment in mind, we encourage any department, student organization, or other campus community members that will be ordering promotional products to consider the impacts to ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ’s environmental footprint. Consider the item’s purpose and value over a long period of time. How does the product complement your campaign? Is it reusable?
These are not requirements for purchasing promotional items, just guidelines to aid in the decision-making process.
