As part of BSU's commitment to the environment, all new campus buildings and renovations to existing buildings are designed to meet Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification guidelines as established by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). LEED certification verifies that a building was designed and built using strategies that address such standards as sustainable site selection, energy and water efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
