    Westminster College in Salt Lake City is the only private, comprehensive liberal arts college in the state of Utah. In 2011, it earned a STARS Silver rating; and now it can add another honor—three-time recognition from The Princeton Review as one of the top Green Colleges. This relatively small college packs quite a green punch; not only is Westminster College a Charter signatory of the ACUPCC, its Environmental Center Director also served on the ACUPCC Implementation Liaison Steering Committee. Besides targeting a 2030 date for carbon neutrality, the college boasts a LEED Platinum Meldrum Science Center. What’s more, the Campus Master Plan calls for all major renovations going forward to seek LEED Silver. Westminster values renewable energy: 8 percent of campus electricity is derived from renewable sources. Westminster has been honored as a Blue Sky Visionary Partner for a major wind power purchase, and is an EPA Green Power Partner to boot! Looking for more environmental distinction? Westminster boasts an environmentally-themed residence hall floor for freshmen. Students can eat green—the college features an organic garden and chicken coop. Students power the environmental movement on campus by conducting research in various departments on topics such as recycling and transportation, running clubs such as Eco-Reps and the Roots & Shoots, and attending courses on sustainability. The Career Center and Environmental Center provide green counseling to students who are interested in green careers.
