Prospective and current students often ask for a list of campus environmental groups.  We asked our students for help assembling such a list and came up with the one below (complete with student descriptions of the groups).  Because memberships wax and wane, it is also a good idea to check the Maize Pages to see the most current listings.

Alaska Coalition (jfstring@umich.edu): "The Alaska Coalition works to promote the protection of arctic wildlands through grassroots and citizen initiatives."

College Democrats Environment Committee (dems.enviro@umich.edu): "The Environmental Committee actively works towards environmental responsibility and stewardship on the University of Michigan campus."
