The purpose of the
Campus Center for the Environment (CCE) is to increase the
visibility, capacity, and effectiveness of individuals and groups
engaged in activities to improve environmental education, awareness,
ecological health, and environmental justice at UC Davis. The CCE
will fill existing needs for a central space and forum for
collaboration to increase campus engagement in these efforts.
As a student-run
organization, the Campus Center for the Environment will cultivate
environmental leadership and consciousness within the UC Davis
community. It will assist efforts to improve the environmental
health and performance of UC Davis through CCE projects, supporting
existing groups and organizations, and engaging the campus community
in current issues of ecological sustainability and environmental
justice.
