Sustainability
The Sustainability Vision affirms that “Concordia College will embrace a concern for sustainability that is rooted in the responsibility to ensure the environmental, economic, and social health of the college and of our global community.”
There are numerous avenues for students to get involved with sustainability at Concordia, including coursework, events, service-learning, capstone opportunities, through internships both on and off campus, and the Student Environmental Alliance.
Eco-Representatives is a program of Residence Life that seeks to support student leaders, and to invite all students to engage with issues related to sustainability and practice it together in the residence halls.
Cornucopia organic garden is located in green space east of the campus townhouses and provides a diverse selection of vegetables and herbs for farmers markets and the community. It serves as a model for urban gardening projects, providing education for both Concordia students and the community – including local children and schools.
COBBikes, the campus bike share program, is operated from the Library. Students may check out bikes for use on campus and in the Fargo-Moorhead area. For more information, visit www.ConcordiaCollege.edu/sustainability.
