A brief description of the institution's indoor air quality plan, policy, and/or practices:

Ringling College is committed to providing an environment that is free of recognized hazards related to poor indoor air quality (IAQ) and will investigate IAQ complaints. Preventative actions to sustain good IAQ are paramount and these include preventative maintenance of ventilation equipment, educating students on maintaining their living spaces and informing the campus community on the reporting procedure for IAQ concerns.
Complaints are infrequent, but may be related to mucous membranes and / or respiratory irritations, headaches, or high humidity levels. Poor IAQ may be caused by vapors, dusts, materials infiltrating from outside (such as pollen or engine exhaust), fungal growth (mold) or deficiencies in the ventilation system. This program applies to all buildings managed by Ringling College.
