Ball State University is one of the top leading colleges taking the initiative to create an environmentally friendly campus. It has been nationally recognized on more than one occasion, and is consistent in its work and commitment to sustainability. Ball State was in The Princeton Review, as 1 of only 286 colleges to have an eco-friendly campus and has been recognized in Kiwi magazine as an eco-minded school. Ball State has also been received the Governor’s Award for Excellence in Recycling presented my former Gov. Frank O‘Bannon in 2000, and the Lugar Energy Patriot Award presented my Sen. Richard Lugar in 2007. Available transportation alternatives, its new buildings designed to be LEED certified, the credit opportunities in environmental studies degrees, and its current geothermal project are some defining factors in Ball States sustainability approaches. Ball State strives for excellence in every program and project they complete, but when it comes to being economical, they have mastered the trade.
