Being Green @ UVM -- Sierra Club Magazine ranks UVM #3 in Cool Schools
This year the Sierra Club Magazine ranked UVM number THREE in it's annual "Cool Schools Report" Out of a total of 100 possible points, UVM scored a 91. The Sierra Club ranked schools in ten categories on topics such as: "...policies for building, energy, food, investment, procurement, and transportation; curriculum; environmental activism; waste management; and overall commitment to sustainability." The UVM campus has a new office of sustainability. The UVM campus recycles old office furniture to the campus and the community at their surplus location. Students on campus may serve as ECO-REPS in their residential halls. They help create awareness about sustainability and recycling among the student body. I think the techno trash recycling centers are great around campus! You can put batteries, old technology, and light blubs in them. These recycle centers are located in dorms, at the Bailey/Howe Library, in multiple areas of the Davis Student Center, and other campus locations. It's easy at UVM to do your part to be Green!
