The Student Sustainability Center is a place where environmentally conscious people and those looking to be more environmentally conscious may come together, hang out, learn and connect with organizations at Oregon State and around the community.
The Student Sustainability Center (SSC) is open Monday through Friday, 11 a.m.–5 p.m. It features a building that has been remodeled in an environmentally friendly manner and serves as a demonstration for green living. There is a resource library and public computer for those at OSU and in the community to come in and use.
Events are often held in the center and are publicized through our listserv and on our Web site. The SSC also features a sustainable landscape designed by students as their final project in the HORT 280 class.
