The University of Wisconsin Green Bay was recently honored with a Silver environmental rating from the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE).
With more than 900 participants in 40 countries, AASHE’s Sustainability Tracking, Assessment & Rating System (STARS) program is the most widely recognized framework in the world for publicly reporting comprehensive information related to a college or university’s sustainability performance.
The designation is both a nod to UW-Green Bay’s “Eco U” roots and a springboard for ongoing and future environmental efforts.
The University was also “Silver” in 2017 with a score of 45.
But this time, their STARS rating of 54.4 is far closer to the 65-point threshold for “Gold” — a sustainability goal in the years ahead.
