The IUPUI Master Plan recommends more than doubling the tree existing canopy to at least 28% of land area. At this level and density of tree cover, the campus will realize numerous environmental benefits. Air pollution removal will increase from 3,004 pounds per year to 8,542 pounds per year. Carbon storage and sequestration will triple, increasing from 1,421 total tons stored annually to 4,042 tons stored, and from 11 total tons sequestered annually to 31 total tons sequestered. Stormwater runoff will be reduced, decreasing the amount of silt and pollutants that drain to the White River and Fall Creek. The increase in tree canopy will provide over $165,000 in savings on stormwater detention facilities that might otherwise need to be built.

IU has also become a leader in high-quality environmentally conscious design, and leads the Big Ten in LEED-certified green buildings with twenty three certified to date, including twelve at the gold level (platinum is the highest certification). This strategy pays dividends for the life of each building in terms of occupant health and productivity, resource efficiency, life cycle cost savings and retention of human capital. IU will implement plans to solidify IU’s focus on efficient and environmentally conscious campus design and operation by: a. Completing and implementing pedestrian, transportation, and bicycle submaster plans on each campus. b. Certifying all major new buildings with the LEED Green Building Certification System and elevate the minimum certification level to Gold. c. Continuing to explore and research a variety of energy and utility supply and delivery options that reflect changes in economies, demand, and climate variables. d. Achieving the goals for energy efficiency and emissions reductions called for in the Campus Master Plan and the Integrated Energy Master Plan for the IU Bloomington campus; expand that analysis to all campuses. Increasing energy and utility system efficiency while reducing demand and consumption. Continuing Priorities • Develop all campuses in accordance with the current master plans. • Focus new capital and major renovation projects on supporting IU’s new academic initiatives and its most productive academic units. • Give special emphasis on all campuses to improving traffic flow, making them more “pedestrian and bicycle friendly,” and to improving parking and alternative modes of transportation for students, faculty, and staff. • Enhance the built and natural environment on all campuses to continue to make the campuses attractive and beautiful places for those who work there and their surrounding communities. • Expand efforts to make all IU campuses more energy efficient and sustainable.

IUPUI Master Plan https://cpf.iu.edu/doc/master-plan/iupui-master-plan.pdf Transportation Demand Management (TDM)(p.167) To create a more sustainable transportation policy and reduce the need for future structured parking, testing and implementing Transportation Demand Management (TDM) strategies is recommended. TDM strategies provide incentives to students, faculty and staff to use alternatives to single occupancy vehicles to travel to campus and could lower parking demand 5-10%. Such strategies could include: • A review of current parking pricing policies for changes that could help reduce demand; • Subsidies and improved facilities for transit and bicycle use; • Increased marketing of the carpooling program, and reservation of priority parking spaces for participants; • Increased marketing of the Guaranteed Ride Home program; • Establishment of car-sharing and/or bike sharing programs on campus; • Improved inter-campus and intra-campus shuttle systems, including stops serving the larger academic medical center campus; and • Coordination between IUPUI, IU Health and IndyGo to revise regional transit routes that directly serve campus and IU Health destinations. TRANSIT (p.170) The transit recommendations of the Master Plan include simplifying the on-campus shuttle routes, establishing a central transfer area and taking advantage of the proposed one-way to two-way street conversion. BICYCLE CIRCULATION (p.172) The Master Plan proposes a comprehensive network of on-street bicycle lanes, off-street bicycle paths, and bike-friendly streets that connect to existing city routes and the regional greenway trails along the White River. Development of this alternative transportation infrastructure will reduce the amount of campus vehicular movement. Creating a campus bike station with covered parking, bike repair, showers and lockers will also facilitate bike transportation. It is also recommended that the University evaluate and implement a bicycle-sharing program. IUPUI Sustainability Strategic Plan (2018-2025) 1) Transportation a.

The Campus Master Plan has focused on a purposeful and strategic incorporation of both quantitative and qualitative improvements to the setting of the academic mission, to promote a campus that manifests sustainable planning principles. Overlaid on the key themes of the Campus Master Plan, the recommendations are grouped under several broad sustainable planning principles: 1. Adopt environmentally sensitive land use practices; “We value and conserve natural resources and will seek to preserve and make sustainable use of our air, water, and land. We will protect and conserve nonrenewable natural resources through efficient use, careful planning, collaborative land management programs and regulatory compliance. ” - 2008 Adopted Campus Sustainability Principles 2. Move toward a carbon-neutral campus; “As stewards of the IUPUI campus and of all its resources, we recognize the interdependence of humans with the environment. We must apply thoughtful and creative planning to achieve a thriving campus community built on the principles of sustainability. We must foster conservation, protection and enhancement of natural resources through campus policy and personal behavior. We must promote a common agenda for IUPUI as a green campus. We must preserve and enhance the quality of life for our campus community and future generations in ways that enhance teaching and learning, research, civic engagement and administrative practices.” - 2008 Adopted Campus Sustainability Principles 3. Ensure a range of transportation options; “We will minimize transportation demands to and from campus and continue to incorporate alternative fuels in the campus fleet. We will work with the Central Indiana Clean Cities Alliance, Central Indiana Commuter Services, and IndyGo to encourage increased use of carpooling and public transportation by IUPUI students and employees and we will work with Central Indiana Bicycling Association, Indy Greenways and similar programs to encourage bicycling as a commuter option. ” - 2008 Adopted Campus Sustainability Principles 4.

The IUPUI Campus Master Plan: https://cpf.iu.edu/doc/master-plan/iupui-master-plan.pdf Plan for Innovative Sustainable Buildings and Landscapes. (p. 124) “We will seek to design, build, restore and manage our facilities and grounds through the use of sustainable materials and practices. Total life cycle costs, energy use, and impact on the environment are other important factors that will influence selection of materials and practices.” - 2008 Adopted Campus Sustainability Principles The Campus Master Plan outlines strategies to build on the significant past water conservation initiatives to further reduce potable water use by 35 percent over today’s use, even while increasing the overall built square footage on campus Sustainability Principle 4 Recommendations • Design buildings for daylight harvesting without unwanted heat gain or glare. • Orient (and pitch) roofs for solar thermal and photovoltaic applications (immediate or future). • Site buildings for microclimate characteristics such as cooling summer breezes, protection against winter winds, sunlight, and shade. • Site vegetative and landscaping features to create beneficial local microclimates to minimize energy and water usage in campus buildings. • Install meters to create a thorough database of existing campus building energy (electricity, chilled water, and steam) and water use. • Use efficient plumbing fixtures in new construction. • Retrofit existing plumbing fixtures, especially in residential facilities. • Consider graywater capture and re-use in new construction. • Systematically identify and remedy leaks. • For academic medical and research facilities, target strategies for reducing process water by at least 10% for water intensive equipment. Water Use Reduction Recommendations (pgs. 184-189) If all of the following measures 1-6 are implemented, the strategies combined would result in a potable water savings of 187.6 million gallons a year. IUPUI would increase its building area by 50% but increase its potable water consumption by only 4%. 1) Use efficient toilets and urinals in all new construction 2) Retrofit existing fixtures with efficient toilets and urinals 3) Use efficient faucets and showers in all new construction 4) Retrofit existing fixtures with efficient faucets and showers 5) Use Greywater Recovery in all new construction 6) Reduce Process Water Use by 10% The IUPUI plan focuses on implementing urban water quality measures while also disconnecting storm water from the combined system by encouraging disconnection of existing buildings, and designing new buildings with separate sewer lines.

The IU Bicentennial Strategic Plan, page 4, Principle of Excellence One, Objective One, states: 1. Indiana University will ensure an affordable education, through: a. Keeping IU tuition and fees as low as possible in relation to its peer institutions; b. Increasing undergraduate scholarships that reduce net tuition and fees; c. Providing competitive graduate student financial support; d. Maintaining a multi-faceted program of incenting and supporting students in graduating on time; e. Providing comprehensive programming and advising for students regarding financial aid and debt management. (This has been achieved through the IU Money Smarts Program, which has led to decreased borrowing https://indianapublicmedia.org/news/indiana-university-student-loan-borrowing-62967/) 2. IU will continue to seek out and support undergraduate and graduate students from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, including first-generation college students, veterans, students from under-represented minorities, returning students, and part-time students. Affordability: See Affordable IU: https://affordability.iu.edu/ Affordable IU comprises five interconnected strategies: 1. Tuition—to keep tuition increases as low as possible. 2. Institutional Gift Aid—to provide extensive financial aid for qualified students. o Institutional gift aid from all sources has doubled over the past seven years and now totals nearly $300 million. Philanthropic support for gift aid for students will be a central objective of the Bicentennial Campaign (see Framework of Excellence 7) and of further university investment. o Particular attention will be given to gift aid for students with limited financial resources, and from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds, including veterans and first-generation students. 3. On Time Graduation—to ensure comprehensive measures are in place to assist all students to graduate on time. o IU’s Finish in Four completion award effectively freezes tuition for juniors and seniors on track to graduate on time. The Summer Tuition Discount Program provides a discount for summer courses at IUPUI and the regional campuses o The new Office of Completion and Student Success supports and coordinates student completion activities and initiatives across the university. o Campuses will employ pervasive advising of students, supported by the IU Graduation Progress System (iGPS), including degree mapping, early alerts, degree audit, and analytics, to increase graduation rates and reduce the time to degree completion. 4. Student Debt—to provide programs in financial literacy so that students can better manage and reduce student loan debt. o These programs reduced student debt across all IU campuses by $31 million in one year. 5. Direct Cost Containment—to reduce other costs of attendance at IU. o Costs such as textbooks and software have been significantly reduced. Residence hall rate increases have been kept low. Principle of Excellence 2, and Bicentennial Priority 5, A Global University: IU will develop active partnerships with leading or complementary higher education institutions. IU will sustain active alumni chapters in all of its priority countries in support of study abroad, selective international recruitment, and faculty research and scholarship. IU will establish a Global Gateway Network to support these objectives.
