 Smith provides outstanding
resources for the education of effective leaders, so addressing sustainability on campus
makes educational and economic sense. In this effort, Smith joins other institutions: Reed, Vassar, UC-Berkeley, Oberlin, Carleton, Tufts, Carnegie
Mellon, Brown, Clemson, Dartmouth, and Emory.
The college has committed to creating a Leadership
in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-certified green building that fosters
best practices in interdisciplinary education and exemplifies forward-looking,
sustainable construction design and practice.
This innovative design builds on feasibility research
conducted by three students in the second Picker graduating class who worked with
the building architects and were supervised by the mechanical and electrical systems
engineers.
