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.

Paper Campaign

Paper Campaign works to reduce waste and use of paper on Whitman campus. Paper campaign advocates the use of recycled pulp for all papers used on campus, as well as promotes paper saving practices, such as electronic-only documents. Currently all printing paper purchased by the college is recycled, as is most of hygiene papers in the academic buildings and dormitories. Paper Campaign also produces re-used paper notebooks. The sought after notebooks are available at the Whitman bookstore. Paper Campaign’s entry was among the top ten climate change activism videos in the Treehugger Convenient Truths contest in 2007. For more information please refer to Paper Campaign leader Lizzie Porter-Roth porterer@whitman.edu .
