Campus and Community Ecology. Washington State University has joined the growing ranks of colleges and universities in the United States working to develop a vision of sustainable campus and urban communities. WSU became a member of the National Wildlife Federation - Campus Ecology Program in 2002-03, when participating faculty initiated several projects to launch the WSU Campus & Community Ecology Project. A primaryÝ goal of the WSU Campus & Community Ecology Project is to support and strengthen the diverse efforts of faculty, students, staff, administrators, and the surrounding campus communities to define and build a more sustainable, "green campus" at Washington State University.

A Comprehensive Urban Regenerative Process for Community Sustainabilty. Sustainable programs require a comprehensive and integrated understanding of a communityÌs unique human-environmental resources. By definition, sustainability identifies strategies that look at a community's on-site natural resources as integral aspects of the design. It integrates natural systems with human patterns and celebrates continuity, uniqueness and placemaking. This is our proposal for Pullman, Washington, the home of Washington State University.
