Searching for green: U of L makes Princeton Review’s green guide

Do students care about sustainability when it comes to picking a college? The Princeton Review Guide for 353 Green Colleges seems thinks so, and they included U of L in their list.

The Princeton Review Guide gave U of L a rating of 93 for its green transportation alternatives, percentage of food purchased from local or organic sources, LEED certification for new construction and the rate of the university’s waste diversion, among other green initiatives. The ranking is based off the university’s 2014 data.

Justin Mog, the assistant to the provost for sustainability initiatives, says that it difficult to say where U of L stacks up with other colleges in terms of sustainability.
