A brief description of the green building rating system(s) used and/or a list of certified buildings and ratings:
LEED, or Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design, is a green building certification program that recognizes best-in-class building strategies and practices. To receive LEED certification, building projects satisfy prerequisites and earn points to achieve different levels of certification. Prerequisites and credits differ for each rating system, and teams choose the best fit for their project.

A brief description of the green building guidelines or policies and/or a list or sample of buildings covered:
A popular concept currently is “Green” construction, as defined by the Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) from the United States Green Building Council. In general, good
architectural and engineering designs plan the building to work within the site and environment.
Special emphasis is placed upon the use of recycled materials, new materials that are recyclable
at the end of the useful life, and use of locally produced materials. Energy-efficient materials and
practice are an integral part of the building design. Life-cycle costs of proposed products and
solutions are to be reviewed and will be considered as part of the decision making process by the
University. The building (new, addition, or renovation) must be LEED Certifiable, that is, designed
in conjunction with the LEED point system so that the University, should it so choose, could have
the building formally certified.
A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with green building design and construction guidelines and policies:
The project architect submits all necessary data to USGBC in order to certify building.
