Green Campus Developments Good for Planet, People and Profit

A recent Los Angeles Times article by Tiffany Hsu noted that college and university campuses are becoming more "green" for not only the benefit to the environment--- but also for "the bottom line" and it's value in attracting more students.

When you present that package of benefits--- it's a difficult movement for which to argue against.

Because of reports such as this we'll see more institutions pushing "green" and see more references to this direction in mission/vision statements or even in educational goals.

What do you think--- is "going green" going to be one of the criteria you look for in a college?
