SL3: A virtual laboratory that supports and promotes an engaged campus community in all three aspects of sustainability – environmental stewardship, economic security, and social justice.

Through the Office of Sustainability, SL3 aligns its activities with various aspects of the campus community including:

• Academic Programs
• Project Work
• Innovative Research & Scholarship

Moreover, SL3 collaborates with community engagement, facilities, & operations. This comprehensive approach aims to promote sustainability not just as an academic pursuit but as an integral part of daily living and learning. The goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of individuals within the local, regional, and global communities.
