At ACC, we don’t want to just talk about going green – we want to make it happen! The college is rolling out a number of initiatives that are making us better stewards of the environment. To fund these efforts, the Board of Trustees approved a sustainability fee, which will take effect for the spring 2010 semester.

How much is the fee?
The fee is $1 per semester credit hour, with the average student paying $8 a semester.

How will the fee be used?
From Recycling to Green Car Preferred Parking, ACC is creating new initiatives to help make carbon neutrality a reality. Check out this list of ACC’s sustainability projects. Visit the sustainability site often to get updates on green projects and future plans!

What if I have some sustainability ideas?
We want to hear them! Visit our contact page to submit your ideas, comments, and questions.

How much will the sustainability fee raise?
ACC estimates the sustainability fee will generate $750,000 a year.

Who oversees sustainability at ACC?
Sustainability is a team effort. We all play a role. Meet ACC’s Director of Environmental Stewardship, who will lead the effort.
