Sustainable Buildings

Goals for the Subcommittee, Green Buildings

Goals for Gault Manor: Discover if it is possible to find more sustainable alternatives for the paint and carpet going into the building.

General Goals:

  • Obtain funding for energy monitors in the dorms/campus buildings.
  • Raise awareness on campus about energy use through the monitors.
  • Create a model that crosses the divide between current building practices and more sustainable practices, which may be used as an example in future presentations and projects.
  • Discover the current 'green' practices on campus and how these practices may be followed more completely in all buildings with little cost/high effectiveness.
