North Carolina State University. Physical Environment Committee.

The Buildings and Grounds Committee was established at North Carolina State College in or before 1932 to consider matters related to the aesthetic appearance of the campus. In the committee's early years, this meant primarily considering issues of landscaping and other campus beautification, as well as adornment (and other decorative considerations) for the buildings on campus. In 1970, the Buildings and Grounds Committee was accused of becoming lax in these responsibilities, and was reorganized as the Campus Planning and Environment Committee, with duties to include a more wholistic responsibility for directing all matters related to the physical environment of the campus at North Carolina State University. In 1986, the committe was renamed the Physical Envrionment Committee. As of 2010, the Physical Environment Committee remains active, and advises the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business on matters pertaining to the University's physical environment.
