  • Sustainability

    Beloit College is certainly a leader within the sustainability movement And the school’s commitment to going green has never been stronger. For starters, Beloit operates the Sustainability Project Fund, which provides initial capital to environmentally friendly ventures. The proposed projects must also generate income or savings, a portion of which is then used to repay the original loan. The Fund allows students and faculty to implement policies and programs, which would otherwise be prohibited due to cost. Of course, the institution as a whole is also making an effort to be environmentally friendly. For example, several years ago the dining halls decided to go tray-less. This has resulted in a 35 percent reduction in waste. Additionally, they use locally sourced food and produce from the college vegetable garden whenever possible. Even better, two of the campus dining options have made the jump to biodegradable plates and utensils. Fortunately, there’s also plenty of action taking place beyond the kitchen. The new Science Center is LEED Platinum-certified, an honor bestowed upon only two other buildings in the state of Wisconsin. Further, any new campus landscaping is designed to emphasize local and historical ecosystems. The college uses vegetated low spots, called bioswales, to collect and retain storm-water runoff. Moreover, housekeepers are given environmentally friendly products to use. Finally, Beloit is extremely proud of its healthy and effective recycling program. Students and faculty alike have managed to recycle 76 tons of material (including paper, plastic, cans and glass). And an amazing 32 tons of yard waste was composted. These Buccaneers deserve a round of applause!
