Abstract: Managing sustainable development and environmental performance is a legal requirement for universities, yet this doesn't seem to translate into actions. The low roll-out of specific management tools is explained both by the difficulties to implement any control system in universities, and by those specific to environmental control systems. Two other factors play an important role in this implementation: the political will of the management teams and the universities' "culture of control". A survey carried out in four French universities will help understand the brakes and success factors and draw a cartography of environmental monitoring systems.
