Sustainability
Montgomery County Community College has always placed its community first, in terms of quality education, partnerships, community participation, and concern for our environment.Some of these efforts are evident in our daily operations, such as the use of hybrid and all electric vehicles, adoption of a clean air policy, a state of the art, computerized energy management system for the campus, the purchase of wind generated electricity, Recyclemania™ (www.mc3.edu/recycle/) and many other “green” initiatives are top of mind for how we operate.
This dedication has been further solidified by our president, Dr. Karen Stout, by signing a commitment which is recognized by college presidents nationwide. The President’s Climate Commitment has college and university presidents look at their carbon footprint and challenges them to find solutions to reducing the footprint and becoming more sustainable.
