Wake Facts

Starting April 21st, only biodegradable to-go materials will be used at the PIT.

Wake Forest Facilities is considering purchasing electric carts to replace gas-powered vehicles. One of these carts can be seen on the Magnolia Quad, this Wednesday and Thursday.

Mission

This website provides information on the upcoming Sustainability Week, in addition to issues concerning sustainability on the Wake Forest University campus. Users will find both good and bad things about Wake Forest's current pracitces. There are many iniatives of which students and faculty are unaware. There are also numerous destructive practices on campus. Hopefully, this site will help to improve the sustainability of Wake Forest by illuminating these issues and sparking public debate and awareness. The calendar for Sustainability Week is below, and descriptions of the events can be found on the Initatives page. The Sustain WFU has links to other groups and initatives on campus. The student group that intiated this project and website can be reached at Sustainability Committee.
