Plant Library

The mission of the Plant Library is to educate students about the many benefits of houseplants and support the propagation of houseplants throughout CC’s residential spaces. Indoor plants provide healthier air, minimize stress, reduce mental fatigue, and improve productivity. This program is designed to help make caring for plants more accessible for students who may need to leave campus for breaks throughout the school year or study abroad opportunities. This pilot program launched in the spring of 2024 will be returning to the student community this academic year.
