Contact University Landscape Architect Kristine Kenney at kkenney@uw.edu if your project might alter the physical appearance of the campus in any way.

Housing & Food Services

Housing & Food Services (HFS) is committed to environmental stewardship in collaboration with our students to reduce our environmental impact, and continually working to transform, grow and improve our sustainability efforts. Any student or group of students interested in partnering on a CSF project with HFS must initially submit a proposal to the HFS Sustainability Committee. Once a project is submitted, the committee will contact the submitter to set up a meeting to review and vet the proposal. To submit a request to the HFS Sustainability Committee, please provide a brief description of your proposed project and a projected timeline.
