The Sustainability Office employs 1 full time staff member, up to six student employees, and up to ten student interns. Additionally, the Sustainability Manager works with the Sustainability Steering Committee to advance the Climate Action Plan, Campus Sustainability Policy, and Carbon Commitment.The University received the Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star certification for six buildings, and currently has 10 buildings with LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Certification, 9 Gold and 1 Silver, with two additional buildings pending. Every building on campus is sub-metered for electricity, water, and steam, allowing for close monitoring and resource conservation. Additionally, recycling is available in all buildings and public transportation is free for employees and students.Students have a wide range of opportunities to engage with sustainability on campus. The Sustainability Office provides internship and employment opportunities, as well as support for independent study and capstone projects.
