A brief description of the institution’s GHG emissions reduction initiatives:
Energy conservation management program works to change occupant's behavior to conserve energy. Every building built or renovated since 2009 must meet LEED Silver or higher status. 9 of 22 buildings across campuses are LEED certified (1 LEED Platinum, 4 LEED Gold, 4 LEED Silver).
