Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Although the WUSTL's IPM plan covers the entire area of our campuses (both Danforth and Medical School), the acreage presented above is indicative of only those areas of our Danforth campus covered in vegetation. Given the building density of our Medical School campus, the area covered in vegetation here represents are very small percentage of the space, and thus we have not included it in this calculation.
