Sustainability Master Plan

Our roadmap for a more sustainable campus, classroom, and community

The MCC Sustainability Master Plan (2021–2026) establishes seven goals spanning energy efficiency, waste reduction, academics, grounds, engagement, equity and transportation — setting a clear direction for how the College operates and teaches. Developed through a series of College-wide workshops and benchmarked against AASHE STARS guidance, the plan reflects our institutional priorities and national standards for sustainability in higher education.

Planning Themes — Stewardship and Sustainability of Resources are one of six MCC planning themes, committing the College to improving operations and strengthening infrastructure in support of sustainable practices.
Facilities Long-Range Plan — The long-range vision for our physical campuses and locations closely relate to sustainability goals for energy, grounds and transportation.
