Sustainability
As a core institutional principle, sustainability animates Haverford's broad mission of stewarding its financial, ethical, and curricular endowments in the interest of educating principled global citizens while safeguarding intergenerational equity as a perpetual institution.
EnGoPlanet solar pole lights, which use photovoltaic solar power and are nearly maintenance-free, were installed at the Tritton and Kim dorm plateau in 2016. The lights save about 1,100 kWh per year. Photo: Patrick Montero.
