Sustainability
The triad of academics, work, and service outlined in College’s mission statement make it a unique place to learn about sustainable decision-making in action. Environmental studies is a popular major on campus, including six different concentrations. The Farm and Garden that supplies Warren Wilson’s Dining Services began doing so way before eating local was a popular concept. The college’s Environmental Leadership Centeris a cut above the typical campus eco-organization, and is currently re-purposing its work to support faculty, staffa nd student efforts to research and impelment regional solutions to sustianability challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss and cultural preservation. Warren Wilson has made a commitment to using green building standards for all new construction and retrofits and to reduce campus-wide emissions by 80 percent by 2020. Among the residence halls on campus is the nation’s first LEED Platinum-certified residence hall under the Existing Buildings rating system—the EcoDorm—built by student teams with wood that was repurposed or sustainably harvested on campus. The dorm also features solar panel window awnings, solar thermal hydronic floor heating, a rainwater catchment system that helps irrigate the surrounding permaculture, and many other waste-minimizing features. But perhaps the most impressive statistic is yet to be mentioned: From 2006-2013, 100 percent of the school's electricity use was offset through the purchase of wind power generated renewable energy credits. In addition, 12 percent of campus heating and cooling energy demand is met with geothermal and solar thermal resources, and composts 100 percent of all cafeteria food watse creating soil ammendment for campus needs. For all of these sustainable initiatives, the college has received many accolades: It has been named one of the greenest schools in the nation by the Sierra Club, U.S. New & World Report, The Weather Channel, Blue Ridge Outdoors, The Daily Green website, the National Wildlife Foundation, GreenLivingOnline.com, Kiwi magazine, Second Nature, and now The Princeton Review, two years running.
