Graduating seniors at CU Boulder can take the Graduation Pledge of Social & Environmental Responsibility to get a green cord to wear at graduation to show their commitment to environmental and social responsibility in their future career. Green cords are now available for free—first come, first served—to the first 500 who pledge for May 2024 graduations. 

The Graduation Pledge of Social & Environmental Responsibility of the Graduation Pledge Alliance states: “I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and to try to improve these aspects of any organizations for which I work.”
