Committee on the Campus Environment (CCE)

The Committee on the Campus Environment was organized as a standing committee at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK) in August 1999. Its mission is to advise the Administration on institutional policies and behaviors that promote environmental stewardship at UTK. As a Research I university, UTK has both the qualifications and the responsibility to demonstrate leadership as a "living laboratory" for environmental stewardship.
