Welcome to the home page of the Centenary College Environmental Group.

The goal of this organization is to create a sense of responsibility for our resources and our community. Through promotion of awareness and education of environmental issues, this organization seeks to establish Centenary College as an environmentally positive example for other colleges and universities as well as the state of New Jersey.

We encourage involvement in the Centenary campus community and the the public community surrounding Hackettstown.  We offer educational programs on campus as well as local schools, organize environmental events, and develop and initiate programs to promote responsible use of the earth’s resources.

Meetings

Meeting times and locations are announced via email.  If you are interested in participating, but cannot attend the meetings please contact us.  An online archive of our meeting minutes/notes is available here.
