A Year in Review: 2011–12 SUSTAINABILITY AT STANFORD A Year In Review 2011–12 Universities like Stanford have an obligation to educate the sustainability leaders of tomorrow. So we must bring the rigor of academic research to the important Sustainability at Stanford choices humanity must make and teach our students to do the same. We also must lead by example and pursue A Year in Review sustainability on our campus. — John Etchemendy Provost Stanford University 2011–12 Welcome The Office of Sustainability and our campus partners are pleased to present the 2011–12 edition of “Sustainability at Stanford: A Year in Review,” which showcases the strides made in campus sustainability during the academic year. This publication summarizes operational, academic, and programmatic highlights, presents metrics and trends, and provides an in-depth review of featured topics. Sustainability is a core value at Stanford. Integrated into academics, campus operations, communications, and events, sustainability practices are reducing the university’s environmental impact, saving resources, and engaging the campus community. This year we are particularly excited to highlight ongoing academic initiatives in sustainability, showing their remarkable breadth and contribution to Stanford as a living laboratory. Innovation and efficiency drive Stanford’s sustainability mission and its implementation, showing consistent improvement in performance despite campus growth. The first half of this report presents featured topics, demonstrating Stanford’s commitment to strategic planning and to achieving measureable results. The second half of this report takes a chronological approach, where snapshot stories complement the featured topics and indicate the steady pulse of sustainability at Stanford. Some initiatives are bold and ambitious, while others are grassroots. However, all are strategic and collaborative parts of Stanford’s integrated and flourishing culture of sustainability. Over thirty-five departments and groups from the entire campus community contributed content to this annual report. Together we celebrate our success, and look forward to the journey ahead, with gratitude for all your engagement and goodwill.

Stanford’s sustainability initiatives, like its other initiatives, follow the principle that actions speak louder than goals. This chapter discusses each major topic in terms of key accomplishments, results and trends, academic integration, and offers some insight into the work ahead. Sustainability is a core value at Stanford, and the campus continues to make significant investments in and strides toward sustainability at the operational, Here are some of the most significant and unique accomplishments featured in academic, and programmatic levels. “Sustainability at Stanford: A Year in Review, 2011–12”.

    STANFORD UNIVERSITY STANFORD UNIVERSITY BUDGET PLAN STANFORD 2017/18 BUDGET PLAN 2017/18 Approved: This Budget Plan was approved by the Stanford University Board of Trustees June 14–15, 2017. This publication can be found at: http://www.stanford.edu/dept/pres-provost/budget/plans/plan18.html STANFORD UNIVERSITY BUDGET PLAN 2017/18 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY iii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To The Board of Trustees: It is a pleasure to submit my first Budget Plan as Stanford’s provost. This budget maintains our university’s pre-eminent academic and research programs. It calls for selective investments in high priority areas. It also strengthens our financial base, thereby providing the foundation for the strategic initiatives expected to emerge from the Long Range Planning process. Our approach in developing the 2017/18 Budget Plan has been a cautious one. Slow growth in endowment payout and uncertainty around government sponsored research have created a planning context in which we have reduced the growth of new program investment compared to recent years. At the same time, we have increased our financial reserve position should external funding conditions deteriorate. We are confident this budget both furthers Stanford’s programmatic objectives and maintains a strong underlying financial condition. This document presents Stanford’s 2017/18 Budget Plan for Trustee approval. The Budget Plan has two parts. The first is the Consolidated Budget for Operations, which includes all of Stanford’s anticipated operating revenue and expense for next year. The second is the Capital Budget, which is set in the context of a multi-year Capital Plan. The budgets for Stanford Health Care and Stanford Children’s Health, both separate corporations, are not included in this Budget Plan, although they are incorporated into the university’s annual audited financial report.
