Resource Efficiency Program

Founded in 2002, the Resource Efficiency Program (REP) is a peer-driven educational initiative at Harvard University dedicated to promoting sustainable living within undergraduate houses and dormitories. Student employees, i.e. “REPs”, engage their peers through events, competitions, and campaigns; providing valuable education on topics ranging from energy conservation to saving water. REPs have a direct impact on campus sustainability goals, via operations-focused projects with tangible outcomes within their residence buildings and beyond.
