Rhodes College

Environmental Policy

 

Rhodes College aspires to be a leader in environmental stewardship.  Our sustainability efforts will demonstrate the same excellence that we strive to achieve in all areas of campus life.  We will realize our goals in several ways:

 

  • We will foster a collaborative atmosphere among students, staff, and faculty where creativity and innovation is valued and encouraged in addressing environmental challenges.
  • We will be good stewards of our natural resources in all our operations.
  • We will seek to be an exemplary role model for other institutions through compliance with environmental laws and regulations, continual process improvement, and integration of environmental efforts within other areas of our campus community.
  • We will consider environmental impact in our decision-making processes.
  • We will work continually to increase awareness of sustainability issues on our campus and within the larger community.

4) Is there a sustainability component in your institution's master plan and/or strategic plan (check all that apply)?
[  ]  No
[ x]  Yes, in the master plan. Please describe and provide URL, if available:

There is a component of our master plan that affirms our commitment to preserving existing buildings instead of demolishing and replacing with new structures.  The college retrofits and reuses our existing buildings, and builds structures with expected useable life spans of well over 100 years.  We use fieldstone, limestone, and slate for our building shells.

The College produced a Preservation Master Plan (Funded by the Getty Campus Heritage Grant program in 2004).  Citing the plan, “the Preservation Plan is an effort to preserve the legacy of the campus’ historic core, in particular guidelines for stewardship of the 13 structures and two spaces on the National Register of Historic Places.”  The plan guides the care, maintenance and future growth of historic resources.  The Plan documented and digitized all original architectural plans, surveyed and documented all existing conditions and provided guidelines for the maintenance, improvement and preservation of these historic facilities.
