UWRF Sustainability

Sustainability

We endeavor to engage students, faculty, staff and the wider community, through hands-on educational and volunteer opportunities, to further expand our shared integrity as socially, economically, and environmentally responsible citizens.

We envision

UW-River Falls to be a leading climate negative university, using simple, elegant and affordable solutions to reduce our campus carbon footprint.
Preserving our community's uniquely rural identity while honoring the cultural heritage of every community member to deepen the diversity of experiences our students are exposed to.
The curricula across departments to reflect our commitment to sustainability and the campus as a living and learning laboratory.
A student body renowned for their participation in fulfilling their responsibility and potential to create a better world.

We value the core American values of self-sufficiency and resourcefulness, all grounded in accountability for self, family, neighborhood, community, and country.
