Sustainability
Since 2008, PennMoves has collected over a half-million pounds of items, including clothing and other goods, that students are unable to take with them when they leave campus at the end of the academic year. All donated items are turned over to Goodwill, which distributes them through their stores.
Sustainability
The Lauder College House was designed and constructed to achieve LEED Gold Certification for new construction through the U.S. Green Building Council. Special attention was paid to creating access to landscaped outdoor space, storm water management and reduced water usage. Gutmann College House was also constructed to achieve the LEED Silver Certification.
Innovation
Residential Services, in collaboration with Facilities and Real Estate Services and College Houses and Academic Services, has enhanced and expanded the University's College House system - completing the construction of the Lauder College House and Gutmann College House and the renovation of Hill College House.
