Student Involvement
Similar to other universities, Pacific students, faculty, and staff have been busy expanding and instituting a wide variety of campus sustainability initiatives in recent years. Pacific students often provide critic leadership in sparking new initiatives through program involvements and service in support of natural resource protection and conservation. 
Highlights of some of the most significant of these student involvement activities include: Freshmen student involvement in the Mountains Ocean Valley Experience (M.O.V.E.) program during Orientation to include two days in Yosemite, Marin Headlands, American River, Mt. Diablo, and the San Joaquin Valley with all students working on sustainability service projects. Thanks to additional funding provided by the Pacific Fund this spring, M.O.V.E. is now an affordable option for all first year students.
Participation in the living-learning community Residence for Earth and Environmental Living and Learning (REELL), bringing freshmen interested in the environment together in a residence hall for special programming to learn about global environmental change and responsible oversight and use of natural resources.
The Tiger Bikes program was established by Student Life to make recycled bicycles available to other students for use around campus each semester. Each bike has an orange "Tiger Bikes" license plate.
Campus dining services at Pacific has been selected as one of eight institutions in the nation to participate at the leadership level of their Farm to Fork program, promoting seasonal foods purchased from local markets and using recycled materials for disposable serving ware. Students are currently developing a composting program to reduce food waste.
The REELL community in partnership with the Earth and Environmental Sciences Department recently promoted a campus campaign entitled, "Tap That." The purpose of the program was to educate and inform the campus commuity about disposable water bottles and their adverse effects on the environment, and as well as expose the human injustices associated with the privatization of water by bottling companies.
