The GVSU Campus Sustainability Advisory Council (CSAC) was formed in 2014, and was made up of 25+ faculty and staff members including representatives from all eight colleges and a wide variety of units and divisions.  The CSAC focuses on planning and advancing sustainability as a campus-wide goal and value at GVSU. 

The preliminary charter of the CSAC is to provide support and direction for:

• Developing a vision for the Office of Sustainability Practices that is more student focused where GVSU campuses are seen as learning laboratories for GVSU students and community members
• Establishing a sustainable lifestyle on campus that is embraced in the everyday work of faculty, staff, and students
• Promoting university-wide communications, coordination, and planning of sustainability related programs and activities
• Integrating sustainability programs and activities into the University 2016-2021 Strategic Plan
