  • Sustainability

    Thanks to a number of recent sustainability initiatives on campus, UT Dallas certainly earns its place in this guidebook. Last year, the university opened its first LEED-certified building. The Student Services Building, certified at LEED Platinum, features solar thermal hot water heating, storm water collection tanks that are reused for landscaping, low-flow lavatory fixtures to reduce water consumption, and large windows for plenty of natural daylight. UT Dallas has recently commissioned an Office of Sustainability, which seeks to “mitigate UT Dallas’s footprint on the environment, to raise visibility and awareness of environmental issues on campus and the community, and to engage UT Dallas students, faculty and staff in developing sustainable policies and practices.” To accomplish this, the Office of Sustainability has put a particular emphasis on recycling in recent years. Amongst many other items, the university collects cardboard, aluminum, plastic, and paper (the university recycles more than 1.5 million pounds of paper each year!) in order to minimize the amount of waste it sends to the landfill. The dining hall collects food scraps, which the landscaping and grounds crews use to support the university’s growing composting program. The facilities team is also pitching in by ensuring that 100 percent of cleaning products are Green Seal-certified. Proactive students can join the Students for Environmental Awareness (SEA), which works with major environmental organizations in Dallas like PATH and the DFW Green Alliance to increase sustainability awareness and promote environmental action.
