Welcome!

to the Whitman Campus Greens website! We are a progressive club devoted to environmental preservation, education and awareness. Funded by the Associated Students of Whitman College, we work with the campus and the greater Walla Walla community to promote sustainability and appreciation of the environment. Campus Greens is the umbrella group for a lot of the environmental activities at Whitman and is a gathering place for green-minded student leaders and all those who wish to see the environment become a top priority both at Whitman and nationwide. Campus Greens coordinate a range of student led issue-focused campaigns. We also organize environment-related activities and events, such as speakers, teach-ins, art shows, and fun do-it-yourself workshops. Read on for more information, and don’t forget to check out the campaign website for Environmental Education for Kids.

Environmental Education for Kids

EEK (Environmental Education for Kids Club) provides Whitman students with the opportunity to go into local elementary school classrooms as teams to teach, interact with, and inspire students.The club’s mission is to provide environmental education outreach to the youth of Walla Walla. We encourage an understanding of local ecology and foster respect for the natural environment through creative means.
