In keeping with the mission of the Council on the Environment (COTE) to “…encourage the development of an environmentally responsible campus community…”, the COTE membership periodically adopts resolutions of recommendation for consideration by the University administration.

 All adopted resolutions are forwarded to the Provost of consideration by university administration.

To maintain transparency, regardless of actions taken by University administration, all resolutions are posted on the COTE website.
