Shortcomings in Implementing an EMS in a Public University
In order to become a sustainable university, the
University of Sonora has implemented aSustainability Management System rather than anEnvironmental Management System. This SMS
was certified in July 2008 by a third-party auditfirm. It is too soon to claim sustainabilityimprovements derived for the SMS
implementation; yet, quantitative indicators showimprovements in environmental and culturalissues

RemarksRemarks
There is big difference between an EMSimplemented in industry with an EMSimplemented on campus, mainly becauseon campus a series of procedures is
worthless if the EMS is not linked with thesubstantives functions of the university,mainly education and research. Student
participation must be duty in any EMS foruniversities.
