A brief description of the institution’s main campus and other aspects of the institutional boundary used to complete this report:
The UW's main campus is located in central Seattle, about four miles north of downtown. Located between the shores of Lake Washington and Lake Union, the campus has long has been considered one of the most attractive in the nation.
The UW also owns and leases buildings in other parts of Seattle and beyond. Unless otherwise noted, this report includes buildings owned or leased and operated by UW in Seattle. Properties outside of Seattle are not included. We also do not include cases where UW is ground lessor to buildings owned and occupied by others, and UW buildings leased to commercial tenants.
Which of the following features are present on campus and which are included within the institutional boundary?:
| Present? | Included? | |
| Agricultural school | No | No |
| Medical school | Yes | Yes |
| Other professional school with labs or clinics (e.g. dental, nursing, pharmacy, public health, veterinary) | Yes | Yes |
| Museum | Yes | Yes |
| Satellite campus | Yes | No |
| Farm larger than 2 hectares or 5 acres | No | No |
| Agricultural experiment station larger than 2 hectares or 5 acres | No | No |
| Hospital | Yes | Yes |
The rationale for excluding any features that are present from the institutional boundary:
Facilities such has Harborview Medical Center and others located throughout the city are not owned by UW and thus their GHG emissions are tracked and reported through other agencies or the property owners. Additional examples of exclusions due to this rationale include: Valley Medical Center, UW Medicine Neighborhood Clinics, and The Rome Center.
The UW Bothell and UW Tacoma campuses will be submitting separate STARS reports covering those campuses.
