Sustainability

The Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Facilities Sustainability Team was formed in February 2007. The team expanded with the inclusion of student, faculty, and staff representation in December 2007. We seek to promote the responsible management of resources through the reduction of waste, shared learning, and community involvement. We are working to unite efforts within Facilities as well as with other departments on campus to promote a culture of sustainability that reduces our environmental footprint while contributing to the development of our students as leaders and responsible citizens.

The Sustainability Team has implemented various environmentally friendly initiatives over the past few months including green cleaning and the installation of touch-less soap and paper dispensers in all administrative and academic buildings. We have implemented nighttime temperature setbacks in large areas and have begun replacing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent lights. We have committed to building all future buildings according to LEED certification standards. Additional efforts are underway and include conducting a campus wide sustainability assessment, reviewing our recycling program, testing occupancy sensors and waterless urinals as well as providing informational materials and awareness events for our campus community.

MISSION STATEMENT
“To reduce, to the extent technologically and economically feasible, the environmental impacts associated with the operations of the Institute.”
