Sustainability
The University of Minnesota, Morris has deep roots in agriculture and land stewardship— it was founded on land that once housed a residential agricultural high school—so one might expect it offers, “a renewable, sustainable education.” A charter signatory of the ACUPCC and STARS Charter Participant program, Morris is one of the first public colleges to generate on-site renewable power from local resources. An on-campus biomass gasification plant, which includes a steam turbine, is part of an integrated system for heating and cooling campus buildings. The university’s renewable energy solutions don’t stop there; 60 percent of the Morris campus’s electrical needs are met by wind, generated by the first commercial-scale research wind turbine at a U.S. public university, and a second recently opened. A solar thermal system on the Regional Fitness Center heats water in the recreational swimming pool—while reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 30,000 pounds a year. Morris’ comprehensive sustainability plan encompasses more than just a shift to renewable power. The university values conservation—it has recently completed a multi-million dollar energy service contract to retrofit the campus. Plus, it’s a founding partner in Pride of the Prairie, an organization devoted to sustainable locally produced foods. Among many accessible student groups is the Minnesota Public Interest Research Group—active in “energy, fair trade, sustainable food, and toxicity reduction work.” For students who like to plan ahead, Morris’s Center for Small Towns helped create the GreenCorps, a new AmeriCorps program that develops green professionals.
