Campus-Wide Projects
This is How We're Reaching our Goal
By 2020, Allegheny College must become a higher educational carbon-neutral institution. And for us it's the little things that count.
Reduce
From metal canteens to hard-plastic take-out containers, Gator Green seeks every little way to lessen the amount of waste that Allegheny College produces.
Reuse
Since McKinley Food Court's utensils and take-out containers are bio-degradeable, when Gator Green mixes it with the food waste, we create an awesome Fertilizer Tea that keeps the campus grounds lookin fresh.
Recycle
We want to make being environmentally friendly easy and accessible. Around Allegheny's campus there's always an option for compost and recycling.

It's the Little Things That Count
All around campus there are environmentally friendly concepts being applied to everything from parking lots to ceilings.
