About Sustainable Dartmouth

Sustainable Dartmouth, formerly the Environmental Roundtable, is a student moderated forum where environmental groups on campus communicate and collaborate with each other on sustainability initiatives.

Sustainable Dartmouth meets every Tuesday morning at 8 am in Parkhurst Hall Room 303. Light snacks are provided.

Although the meetings are attended by representatives from sustainability minded groups, all are welcome to attend.

Ruth Hupart ‘08 states, “Sustainable Dartmouth comes as the newest and potentially strongest environmental coalition on campus since the 1960s, when student and alumni activists organized the Environmental Studies Division of the DOC. With the recent hiring of Dartmouth’s first sustainability coordinator as a starting point, Sustainable Dartmouth is uniting the resources of any and all campus groups with an interest in sustainability.

The Roundtable’s past challenge of consistency has been overcome by increased student ownership and initiative and the support of an intern.

Groups represented include:
The Progressives, Field and Farm (the Dartmouth Organic Farm), the Big Green Bus, an embryonic bike recycling program, ECO, the Dartmouth Local Food Project, The Dartmouth Sustainability Initiative and the Green Magazine.
